«Breaking News» The easiest guacamole recipe ever

Avocados are now ubiquitous in our homes, so when you're whipping up a feast for friends, guacamole seems the obvious - and easy - solution.  

But according to one expert many home cooks make crucial mistakes when it comes to mixing the crowd-pleasing dip.    

Eduardo Gomez, the founder of Tequila & Mezcal Fest, has revealed the perfect method for a quick - and authentic - guacamole, and pointed out that substituting lemon juice for lime is a mistake. 

He shared his recipe with FEMAIL ahead of the festival's arrival in London next month, giving you plenty of time to perfect it before party season kicks off in earnest.  

Guacamole is a hugely popular Mexican dip that has made its way to the UK - but are you making it correctly? Eduardo Gomez seems to think so

According to Eduardo failing to use enough juice is another common mistake, with the juice of two limes being the necessary amount in order to correctly balance all of the vibrant flavours. 

He said people sometimes use parsley in the dip, when the correct herb to include is coriander, and he added that its kick should always come from fresh chili - not dried.  

When putting the ingredients together he suggests using a blender or a mixer to get the perfect blend. 

He says the perfect guacamole is made up of three ripe avocados, Thai chili, and as much coriander as you like.

The word Guacamole comes from the Aztec language, with 'Mollli' meaning sauce, and 'Ahuacatl' meaning avocado - making the literal translation 'Avocado Sauce'.

Gomez said: 'Sometimes the easiest recipes can be the most difficult to prepare - if you want to make a really good guacamole you have to balance all the flavours. 

'Personally, I like guacamole with a bit of a kick but it all depends on your palate or the palate of your guests. 

'The most important thing is to use the freshest ingredients possible and the avocados have to be perfectly ripe, not super soft but not too hard either.' 

THE PERFECT GUACAMOLE RECIPE 

You will need:

• Three ripe avocados 


• One fresh green chilli. Eduardo Gomez recommends using a fresh green Thai chilli


• Freshly squeezed juice from two limes 


• Cooking salt (to taste) 


• Coriander (as much as you like)

Method:

Chop both the chili and coriander as small as you possibly can.

In a medium size bowl, mash the avocado flesh with a fork, leaving a few chunks in for added texture. 

Then add the coriander, chilli, lime juice and salt to the mixture.

Mi the ingredients together with a bigger spoon or spatula carefully so as to bind it without creating too much of paste.  

Taste and add more lime or salt if needed to try to find the balance of all the ingredients.

Eduardo Gomez, the...

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
