I'm not a huge fan of avocado, but I know it's good for me, so when they were on sale at my local grocery store, I decided it was time to make friends and make a bunch of guacamole to figure out which one we would like best.
Here's the second recipe I tried, a raw variety.
This is my entry for this week's @foodfightfriday challenge.
Guacamole Salsa
Prepare:
- 2-3 tomatillos depending on size
- 1-2 hot peppers depending on heat
- 1 clove garlic
I used 1 serrano pepper as I'm not a fire-lover.
You might also add some cilantro if you like it (we don't.)
Blend with:
- the flesh of 3 avocados
Stir in:
- 4-6 Tablespoons of crème fraiche or sour cream
- salt and pepper to taste
- other seasonings as desired
Serve with pork rinds, tortilla chips, etc. as a dip or layer onto a taco salad...
