DIRECTIONS
|
|
1:
Wash the avocado even though you will not be consuming the peel. Otherwise, dirt and bacteria from the peel could get onto the flesh as you peel it. Dry the avocado with a clean paper towel or clean dishcloth after rinsing it. Lay the avocado on its side. It will be easier and safer to cut the avocado on its side rather than on its end since more of the skin's surface will be secured in place. Cut around the length of the fruit from one end to the other.

2:
Take one half of the fruit in each hand and twist the two halves to separate the meat of the fruit. Use a spoon to scoop the seed out of the fruit. Glide a metal spoon in between the flesh and the skin. Slip the tip of a large metal serving spoon into the flesh of the avocado as close the the skin as possible.Try to insert the spoon into the flesh before the dark green portion of the flesh to preserve as much of the flesh as possible.

3:
Place the meat of the fruit into a molcajete or a bowl. With the pestle of the molcajete or a fork, mash the avocados with the lime juice, cilantro, and jalapeno until chunky but well blended.

Serve with tortilla chips or use as a garnish or other dishes.
