I tasted my first fresh and authentic Guacamole which was prepared by a native Mexican couple in Key west during my recent trip. Personally, I had never liked it before. It was by accident that we spotted a cart over there, due to my tiny niece who loves her dose of Guac at any time of the day, and that is the reason why we picked up one.
We got an opportunity to taste Authentic key lime pie and visited “Peppers of Key west” which is a small pepper bar. We sat at the pepper bar and did a taste test as well. They had more than thousands of varieties of sauces and dips with spice levels ranged or ranked from 0 to 10 and my daughters and sister who enjoyed this tasting session earned their ” I have the Hottest tongue in this island” badge as well.
At Mallory square, one will get to see lots of things like Magic shows, tarot reading or some amazing food in different kinds of carts. We browsed a bit and decided to taste Budapest special Chimney cake, Caribbean grilled corn and this Guacamole. After all these experiences and eating sessions, we enjoyed the sunset over there.
Now we will see how I tried to replicate their recipe and I want to dedicate this recipe to that couple.
Ingredient:
Avocadoes/ Butter fruit – 2 (small size)
Garlic cloves – 5 to 6
Crystal cooking salt – as needed
Tabasco chilli sauce – 1 tea spoon
Tomato ketch up – 1 teaspoon
Tomato – 1 (big)
Spring onion greens – 2 table spoons
Fresh Lemon juice – as needed
Method:
-Make a paste of garlic, salt and Tabasco sauce by using pestle and mortar.
– it should be like a semi ground paste and it takes little time and energy of yours.
-Now cut open the fruit, remove seed and scoop out the flesh and mash this into fine texture.
– Mix in tomato ketch up and ground garlic and salt paste.
-Garnish with finely chopped spring onion, tomato and juice of lime .
Serve fresh with tortilla chips or with some other choice of yours.
