- to taste Salt
- 1 Lime

Guacamole Sauce Preparation
Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit and peel. Cut it into pieces.
Place the avocado in a bowl and mash it with a fork as if making puree.
Wash the tomato, remove the seeds, and cut the pulp into cubes. Add it to the avocado, slightly mashing it to have some whole pieces and some mashed.
Clean the shallot, finely chop it, and add to the avocado cream.
Also clean the chili pepper well, removing all seeds, cut it into small pieces, and add to the guacamole sauce. Alternatively, add chili powder or a simple local chili, always cut into pieces.
And voilà… your guacamole sauce is ready to be served.
Useful Tips
As an alternative to green chili pepper, you can use 1 local chili or 1 teaspoon of chili powder. If you use Mexican chili, be careful not to touch your eyes when cleaning it.
Choose a ripe enough avocado, or else you won’t be able to mash it, and the final result won’t be creamy.
