Homemade: Curry Pork Chops

Homemade: Guacamole

homemade guacamole

2 Hass avocados, ripe, but firm, cut in 2″ pieces
2 oz. white onion, cut into 1″ pieces
2 garlic cloves
1 small tomato cut in 4 parts
1 tomatillo cut in 4 parts
juice from 1/2 lime
30 cilantro leaves
1/2 tsp kosher salt
2 jalapenos (optional)

Add all ingredients into food processor and pulse until desired consistency is reached.

Things I would do differently next time:
use 1 jalapeno and not 2 because my tongue was on fire
blend all ingredients except tomato, onion, and tomatillo
cut tomato, onion, and tomatillo in small pieces and fold into blended mixture (to give the guacamole some texture)

Tea: San Pao Tai

The specialty tea of Lanzhou, China. I want more, but I don’t know where I can find it!
