Spicy guacamole

• 1 avocado (ripe avocado recommended)
• 1 tomato (ripe recommended)
• 1 spring onion
• Ground black pepper
• Tabasco sauce
• Olive oil
• 1 tablespoon of lemon juice
• Salt

Step 1

We start the spicy guacamole recipe by preparing the avocado. As we have indicated, if you take a ripe avocado, it will be much easier to prepare. Cut the avocado in half and remove the seed and skin. Once peeled, cut the avocado into the smallest pieces you can. The smaller they are, the easier it will be to mash them. With the small pieces cut up, place them in a large, deep bowl so that you can mash them to fit all the other ingredients.

Step 2

Now you have to mash it. Use a fork to do this. You should get a uniform mass, which will be easier if the avocado is ripe, because if it is too hard, it will be much more difficult.

Step 3

Peel the tomato and, as with the avocado, cut it into very small pieces. Then tip all the pieces into the bowl with the mashed avocado.

Step 4

As you have done so far, take the spring onion and chop it as much as possible. The spring onion is also one of the key elements to get that spicy touch we want for this guacamole recipe. Once finely chopped, add this ingredient to the mashed avocado and tomato.

Step 5

Continue using the fork to mash everything as well as possible and get the ingredients as well blended as possible.

Step 6

With the mixture ready, season with salt, black pepper and lemon juice. It is at this stage that the tabasco should be added. In the traditional recipe it is quite common to add 3 drops of this sauce. You can increase this amount if you want an even spicier touch, but don’t underestimate the power of the tabasco. The more times you make the recipe, the sooner you will find the perfect amount for the spiciness you want to enjoy with it.
