Going to a Superbowl party this year, or are you hosting? Either way, score big points with fellow sports fans by making this outrageously delicious guacamole. My friend, Rosy, shared it with me and let’s just say: Rosy’s guacamole is the best I’ve ever tasted! Why? It’s totally authentic. Rosy was born and raised in Mexico and her recipe has been passed down over serval generations. It comes from her cook book Shared Flavors which she authored with several of her friends. According to Rosy, the key to making guacamole is to prepare it 30 minutes before you plan to serve it. Also, since the guacamole will not stay green for long (it oxidizes), she recommends keeping a spoon in the serving dish so you can stir it frequently.
Once again, my beloved Chicago Bears will not be playing in the super bowl. No worries. I already feel like a winner because I’m bringing Rosy’s Guacamole to the party. How about you?
Rosy’s Guacamole
Makes 16 servings
Ingredients:
- 6 avocados
- 1/2 onion, finely chopped
- 1 bunch of cilantro, finely chopped (I used 1/2 cup)
- 2 limes
- 3 Serrano chilies, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon of salt or to taste (Rosy uses 2 tablespoons)
- Tortilla chips
Directions:
- Chop the onion, cilantro, and chilies and leave them outside the refrigerator in a closed container until they reach room temperature.
- Scoop out the the flesh of the avocados and mix with the other ingredients. For a more rustic look, use a fork to mix the ingredients and be sure to leave some chunks of avocado. For a fancier look, use a food processor to mix the ingredients thoroughly.
