This perfect, simple guacamole uses the best avocados mixed with fresh chilli, coriander, onion, tomato and lime. Guacamole should be made just before serving. To help keep the vibrant green colour of the avocados, sit the avocado stones in the prepared guacamole and remove just before serving.

no onion, but add sour cream
Thanks for the seed tip, will give it a go; my recipe given to me by a member of the MSO, no onion, but a dollop of light sour cream gives a smooth finish, but the lime and fresh chili must be pronounced. Best not to chop coriander too finely as the flavour dissipates into the chopping board. Also diced tomato can be drained on paper towel.

the seed!
I make guac all the time and i've never heard of putting the seed in to keep to fresh. A good tip and, amazingly, it works.

Seasoning cast iron

Seasoning a new cast iron frying pan will help to keep it in good condition and help to avoid odours and flavours sticking to the pan. Coat the inside of the pan in oil and place in a hot oven for 30 - 60 minutes. Allow it to cool before wiping it clean.
