Instructions:
- Avocados: Cut the avocados in half, remove the seeds, and scoop the flesh into a medium-sized bowl.
- Tomato: Finely dice the tomato after removing the seeds.
- Red Hot Chili Peppers: Remove the stems and seeds, then finely chop the peppers.
- Garlic: Peel and mince the garlic cloves.
- Use a fork to mash the avocado to your desired consistency (smooth or chunky).
- Add the lemon juice to the mashed avocados to prevent browning and to add flavor.
- Gently fold the diced tomato, chopped chili peppers, and minced garlic into the mashed avocado. Mix well until all the ingredients are fully incorporated.
- Add salt to taste if desired.
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Slice the baguette into 1/2-inch thick slices.
- Arrange the slices on a baking sheet.
- Using a pastry brush, lightly coat each slice with olive oil.
- Toast the slices in the preheated oven for about 5-7 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
- Transfer the spicy guacamole to a serving bowl.
- Arrange the toasted baguette slices around the bowl of guacamole.
Tips:
- Choose ripe avocados for the best texture and flavor. They should feel slightly soft to touch but not too mushy.
- To tame the heat of the chili peppers, remove the seeds and membranes before chopping them.
- Mash the avocados to your preferred consistency. Some people prefer a chunkier texture, while others like it smooth.
- Allow the guacamole to sit for a few minutes before serving to let the flavors meld together.
- Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator, pressing a sheet of plastic wrap directly onto the surface of the guacamole to prevent browning.
Congratulations! You've just made a fantastic batch of spicy guacamole. Whether it's for a party or just a snack, this flavorful dip is sure to be a hit. Serve it with freshly toasted baguette slices or your favorite chips. Enjoy the heat and the vibrant flavors!
