Recipe: Mango Guacamole


Mango Guacamole (serves 15 as an hor d'oeuvre)

4 large or 6 medium ripe avocadoes
1 cup finely chopped white onion
2 fresh green chillies, finely chopped
1/4 cup fresh lime juice, or to taste
3/4 cup diced peeled mango
1/2 cup chopped cilantro
salt and red chilli powder to taste
Garnish: lime wedges

Halve, pit, and peel the avocadoes, and coarsely mash them in a bowl. Stir in the onion, chillies, 1/4 cup lime juice, and salt and red chilli powder to taste (I used at least a teaspoon of each), then fold in the mango and cilantro. Season with additional lime juice.

(Because I had used pineapple in other dishes we served at the baby shower, I had the scooped out half of the pineapple and served the guacamole in it.)
