Guacamole Recepie

My Guacamole Recepie:

Serves six to eight

INGREDIENTS:
. 4 medium tomatoes
. 4 ripe avocados ( squish them a little, if they are squishable they are perfect, if they are too firm, it won't work )
. juice of 1 lime
. 1/2 small onion
. 2 garlic cloves
. small bunch of cilantro, chopped ( the one at the party didn't have any cilantro )
.3 fresh red fresco chiles ( the one at the party didn't have any chiles, too spicy for me )
. salt to taste
. ¼ tsp ground cumin
.2 table spoons of sour cream

1. Cut a cross in the bottom of each tomato. Place the tomatoes in a heatproof bowl and pour in boiling water to cover.

2. Leave the tomatoes in the water for 3 mints, then lift them out using a slotted spoon and plunge them into a bowl of cold water. Drain. The skins will have begun to peel back from the crosses. Remove the skins completely. Cut the tomatoes in half, remove the seed s with a teaspoon, then chop the flesh roughly and set it aside.

3. Cut the avocados in half, then remove the pits. Scoop the flesh out of the shells and cut the avocados into small square pieces, stir in the lime juice and sour cream.

4. Chop the-onion finely, then crush the garlic. Add both to the avocado and mix well with a wooden spoon. Stir in cilantro. Mix in the tomatoes.

5. Check the seasoning and add salt to taste. Cover closely with plastic wrap or a tight-fitting lid and chill for 1 hour before serving. If it's well covered Guacamole will keep in the fridge for 2 to 3 days.

Enjoy!
