Below we would like to introduce you to another recipe from Jamie Oliver that offers a delicious variation on the classic recipe. The avocado dip is refined with black beans and various seeds. This recipe comes from South American cuisine and is perfect for vegetarians and vegans. It is also dairy and gluten free.

Preparation time: 15 minutes
Difficulty level: Not too difficult
Energy value: 83 calories per serving

Ingredients for 3 servings:

200 g canned black beans
2 ripe avocados
1 lime
1 Tomato
1/2 small red onion
1 small clove of garlic
1/2 bunch of fresh coriander
25 g Kerne/Samen-Mix
Vegetable sticks or crispbread for serving

Preparation:

1. Place a non-stick pan on the highest heat and let it heat up well. Meanwhile, drain the black beans and add them to the hot pan. Heat for about 5 minutes, swirling the pan occasionally. When the beans darken and begin to crack, they are ready.
2. Peel and stone the avocados. Then either dice the pulp finely or mash it in a bowl with a fork. Squeeze out the lime juice and add it.
3. Chop the tomato finely, peel the garlic and onion and chop them together with the coriander leaves. Add everything to the avocado, mix and season to taste.
4. Arrange the guacamole on a serving plate, drizzle with the puffed beans and the kernels/seed mix. Serve the starter with vegetable sticks or crispbread.

It is recommended to prepare the guacamole immediately before consumption, as the dip loses its color over time. The avocados used should also be very ripe, so we advise you to buy them a few days in advance.

Tip: If you want to store the guacamole in the fridge for the next day, you can keep its color if you leave the avocado pit in the dip and cover the container tightly.
