Question

Does anyone know the recipe for the Guacamole from Lola's in Denver?

Answer 1

I've never heard of it, but I make an awesome guacamole, and it has only a few ingrdients and its SO easy! Here it is:

2 large avacados

1/2 orange or clemintine.

Garlic Salt

Cut the avacados out of their skin and remove the pit, chop them up in a small bowl and mush them with a spoon so its a little chunky still.

Cut the orange/clementine in half and squeeze the juice from it over the avacados.

Add garlic salt (probably a few teaspoons) but add to taste.

Serve immediately, or cover well.

(Also, if you have salsa, its REALLY yummy if you add 1/3 cup or so to the guac!)

Answer 2

2 ripe avocados

½ red onion, minced (about 1/2 cup)

1-2 serrano chiles, stems and seeds removed, minced

2 tablespoons cilantro leaves, finely chopped

1 tablespoon of fresh lime or lemon juice

1/2 teaspoon coarse salt

A dash of freshly grated black pepper

1/2 ripe tomato, seeds and pulp removed, chopped

Garnish with red radishes or jicama. Serve with tortilla chips.

Method

1 Cut avocados in half. Remove seed. Scoop out avacado from the peel, put in a mixing bowl. (See How to Cut and Peel an Avocado.)

2 Using a fork, mash the avocado. Add the chopped onion, cilantro, lime or lemon, salt and pepper and mash some more. Chili peppers vary individually in their hotness. So, start with a half of one chili pepper and add to the guacamole to your desired degree of hotness. Be careful handling the peppers; wash your hands thoroughly after handling and do not touch your eyes or the area near your eyes with your hands for several hours.

Keep the tomatoes separate until ready to serve.

Remember that much of this is done to taste because of the variability in the fresh ingredients. Start with this recipe and adjust to your taste.

3 Cover with plastic wrap directly on the surface of the guacamole to prevent oxidation from the air reaching it. Refrigerate until ready.

4 Just before serving, add the chopped tomato to the guacamole and mix.

Serves 2-4.
