Guacomole-A vegetarian starter from the Mexican kitchen

Until a few months back, I was not aware of this wonderful dish of Mexican cuisine.I was fortunate enough to be introduced to this dish by some of my American friends in one of the restaurants here.I would like to give you all, too, this wonderful taste of the dish called Guacomole(pronounced as Guacomolee).It is abundant in folic acid and a lot of proteins.

Ingredients:

Avocado-1
Onion-1/4
Tomato-1/4
Garlic-1 or 2 flakes(optional)
Jalapeno-1(or more if you want it more spicy)
Salt

Remove the skin and the seed of the avocado and transfer the contents to a bowl.Add the finely chopped onion,garlic flakes and jalapeno to it and mash the contents to a paste or dip like consistency(like a thick chutney).Add salt and mix well.Add the chopped tomatoes as a topping.The dish is ready to be served.

Use it as a dip with tortilla chips or potato chips.
