Mango pomegranate guacamole is a delightful and fresh twist on the classic guacamole recipe. This fruity and vibrant version brings together the creamy richness of avocados with the sweetness of mango and the crunchy burst of pomegranate seeds. The addition of serrano peppers adds a spicy kick, while lime juice and coriander leaves enhance the overall flavor, creating a unique and refreshing dip perfect for any occasion.
Instructions:
- Cut the mango into small, bite-sized cubes.
- Finely chop the onion.
- Finely chop the serrano peppers. If you prefer less heat, you can remove the seeds before chopping.
- Finely chop the coriander leaves.
- Remove the seeds from the pomegranate (if not already done).
- Slice the avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a large mixing bowl.
- Using a fork or a potato masher, mash the avocados until you reach your desired consistency. Some people prefer it smooth, while others like it chunky.
- Add the chopped onion, serrano peppers, mango cubes, and pomegranate seeds to the mashed avocados.
- Pour in the lime juice and sprinkle the salt over the mixture.
- Add the finely chopped coriander leaves.
- Gently mix all the ingredients together until well combined. Be careful not to overmix, as you want the texture to remain appealing with distinct pieces of mango and pomegranate.
- Taste the guacamole and adjust the seasoning if needed. You might want to add more lime juice or a pinch more salt depending on your taste preference.
- Transfer the guacamole to a serving bowl.
- Serve immediately with your favorite chips, as a topping for tacos, or as a side dish.
- If you need to store the guacamole, cover it tightly with plastic wrap (pressing the wrap directly onto the surface of the guacamole to minimize air contact) and refrigerate. It’s best consumed within a day to prevent browning and maintain freshness.
Tips:
- Choose ripe avocados to ensure a creamy texture. They should yield slightly when gently squeezed.
- You can adjust the level of spiciness by adding more or less serrano peppers to suit your taste.
- To keep the guacamole from browning, press plastic wrap directly onto the surface of the dip before refrigerating.
- For a burst of additional flavor, consider adding a clove of minced garlic or a handful of diced tomatoes.
- Serve immediately for the best taste and texture, but if you need to store it, keep it in an airtight container in the fridge for up to two days.
- To easily remove pomegranate seeds, cut the fruit in half and tap the back with a wooden spoon over a bowl to release the seeds.
Your mango pomegranate guacamole is now ready to be enjoyed! This colorful and flavorful dip is perfect for serving with tortilla chips, spreading on toast, or as a topping for tacos and grilled meats.
