How to Prepare Hot Peppers for Guacamole

Ingredients

3 avocados
1 red onion
1 tomato
4 Serranto chiles

Instructions

1. Cut the avocados in half, take out the seed and spoon out the avocados from their skin. Use a fork and mash the avocados together.

2. Dice an onion and a tomato. Chop up the Serranto chiles and remove the seeds. Cut the cilantro leaves and squeeze the lemon to get lemon juice.

3. Add the diced onions, tomatoes, cilantro and chiles to the gucamole. Mix it all together. Add olive oil and lemon juice and stir. Season with salt.

4. Plate the guacamole, garnish with tomatoes and serve with tortilla chips.

So, now we have to use some gloves to cut the chilies. It is a really spicy chili, Serrano, and it is better if we use the glove. Then we cut it into half, then into half. Now, we take off the seeds. Recipe says that you should use four chilies, but sometimes the chilies is little bit more spicy so I am going to use just two chilies for this guacamole, it is going to be enough for that. So, we are going to make nice squares. Were going to chop it finely, alright. Then we will serve it.
