Spiced with jalapeno and coriander, bursting with tomato and coriander and bound with a generous squeeze of lime juice guacamole makes a quintessentially fresh summer dip. Serve with corn chips or triangles of toasted flat bread in the sunshine, and adjust the chilli content to suit your taste. As a key condiment in Mexican cuisine guacamole is also fabulous with burritos, tacos and enchiladas.
