MAKES ABOUT 2 CUPS | TOTAL TIME: LESS THAN 60 MINS

Yield: Serves 2-4

Ingredients:

1. 4 slices Prasuma Streaky Bacon

2. 3 ripe avocados, pitted, peeled and chopped

3. Cayenne powder

4. 2 red onions, 1 jalapeño, seeded and finely chopped

5. Salt

6. 2 tablespoons olive or vegetable oil

7. Juice of 1 lime

8. 2 tablespoons chopped coriander, plus more for garnish

Process of the recipe

Place the bacon in a large skillet and set over medium heat. Cook, turning, until crispy, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined-plate to drain.

Meanwhile, halve and pit the avocados. Scoop the avocado into a medium bowl and add the lime juice, cumin, 3/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Mash with a fork until combined but still a bit chunky. Add the red onions, pickled jalapenos, brine and tomatoes, reserving a few pieces of tomato and some jalapenos for garnish.

Crumble the bacon into the bowl, saving a spoonful for garnish, and stir together to combine. Garnish with the reserved bacon, tomato, jalapenos and a few squeezes of lime. Serve with tortilla chips.
