Description
Spicy guacamole is mixed with the much-loved flavours of a classic BLT sandwich by adding some bacon, tomatoes and crisp lettuce. Perfect for scooping up with plenty of tortilla chips!
Ingredients
BLT Guacamole
200 g shoulder bacon, cooked
2 x 200 g tubs Westfalia Spicy Guacamole
½ C (125 ml/20 g) cos lettuce, finely chopped
½ C (125 ml/90 g) cocktail tomatoes, quartered
¼ (60 g) red onion, finely chopped
Salt and pepper
Tortilla Chips
10 (250 g) corn tortillas
Oil, for deep frying
To Serve
½ C (125 ml) sour cream
1 Tbsp (15 ml) chives, finely chopped
A few springs of parsley as garnish (optional)
Instructions
BLT Guacamole
Chop the cooked bacon and combine with the Westfalia Spicy Guacamole and the rest of the ingredients. Season to taste. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
Tortilla Chips
Cut each corn tortilla into 6 wedges. Heat the oil for deep-frying to 180 °C. Fry the tortilla wedges, in batches for 1-2 minutes until golden and crisp. Drain on kitchen paper and season lightly.
To Serve
Ripple half of the chives through the sour cream and sprinkle the remaining chives and the sprigs of parsley over the BLT guacamole as garnish. Serve the sour cream and guacamole alongside the tortilla chips for dipping.
Notes
The fried tortilla chips can easily be replaced with 250 g store-bought tortilla chips. We recommend Santa Annas.
