Preparation method

How do you make this?

Preparing the avocado: Cut the avocados in half, remove the pit and scoop the flesh out of the skin. Mash the flesh roughly in a bowl with a fork until you have a creamy but still slightly chunky mixture.

Mixing the salsa: Add the finely chopped shallot, pressed garlic, lime juice and zest, white wine vinegar, and olive oil. Season with pepper and salt to taste. Mix everything well until you achieve a nice flowing but still firm texture.

Tomato and finishing: Cut the tomato into quarters, remove the wet flesh and seeds (save this for a salad or soup). Cut the firm tomato flesh into fine cubes (brunoise). Gently mix the tomato cubes into the salsa or sprinkle them on top for extra texture. Finish with roughly chopped coriander and a few drops of extra olive oil.

Tips

This salsa is best served slightly cooler than room temperature, so don't serve it too cold.
You can add some extra heat with a pinch of chili flakes or a piece of finely chopped red chili.
Use firm but ripe avocados for the best texture.
The salsa is also delicious as a dressing for a fresh salad or as a topping on toast.
