I enjoy summer evenings on my patio with a cold drink and a nice snack. Depending on my mood and what we have in the house, my snacks vary. Sometimes I eat salsa and chips or cheese and crackers, but if there are avocados on hand you can bet your bottom dollar I will be making guacamole. I love guacamole and make all different types. Why stick to the same chunky avocado dip when you can have so many different variations? I remember my aunt use to add sour cream to hers when I was a kid, and my grandmother used to add a touch of salsa to the green avocado smash she whipped up. I do all of the above and sometimes I hit a recipe out of the park. This Mexican beer guacamole is a winner with my family and I am glad to pass it on to you. Enjoy!

Ingredients

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
3 yellow chiles (chile güero)
4 large ripe avocados
1/3 cup cilantro leaves
1 tablespoon salt
2 teaspoons garlic powder or 2 garlic cloves
2/3 cup Mexican beer (I use Modelo)
1 lime (juiced)
1/2 cup water

Directions

1

Heat vegetable oil on a small frying pan over medium heat.
2

Place peppers in frying pan and fry on each side till burned all the way around. Remove the peppers from the pan and allow to cool on a cutting board.
3

Cut the stems off and toss the peppers in the blender. Discard stems.
4

Add the remaining ingredients into the blender and blend until creamy.
5

The beer will make this guacamole fluffy, creamy, and a little on the thick side. It will almost be like a mousse.
6

Serve in a bowl with chips or drizzle over your favorite food. Enjoy!

Expert Tips

tip 1
When blending the ingredients, make sure to stop the blender and mix the ingredients with a spoon so the blades get to chop evenly. When you blend avocado, it tends to remain at the bottom of the blender and not reach the top.
