How to make 4 Ingredient Guacamole

This guacamole recipe really could not be easier!

All you need to do is remove the skin and stones from the avocados and very roughly chop them. Then, place the chopped avocado in a bowl and roughly mash with the back of a fork until you achieve your preferred consistency. Next stir in the chopped coriander, salt and lime juice. Finally, garnish with more coriander and you are done – easy peasy!

What to do with leftover guacamole

Guacamole is best made fresh but, if you find yourself with leftovers, simply place the leftover guacamole in a lidded container in the fridge, where it will keep for a couple of days.
