This is an authentic guacamole, just avocados, tomatos, coriander leaves, chilli and seasoning, and I love it. It’s great for entertaining; you can prepare the tomatoes, coriander and chillies in advance then mash in the avocados at the last minute to preserve their colour. The quantity of chilli is up to you – start with a little piece and gradually add more until it’s hot enough for you.

SERVES 4

4 tomatoes, finely chopped

bunch of coriander, finely chopped

1–3 fresh green chillies, finely chopped

2 large avocados

salt and freshly ground black pepper

tortilla chips, to serve

Mix the tomatoes and coriander together in a bowl. Add a little of the chopped chillies.

Just before serving, remove the peel and stone from each avocado, cut the flesh into rough chunks and add to the bowl. Mash the avocado pieces with the tomato mixture to make a creamy, chunky dip.

Taste and add more chilli gradually, until it’s as you like it, then season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve within 30–60 minutes.
