Preparation

Step 1

1 In a medium bowl, gently mash the avocado, leaving some chunks for texture.

2 Rinse and drain the chopped onion in a strainer to wash off the sulfurous compounds. This makes the taste of the raw onion more pleasant. Fold the mango, strawberries, onion, and cilantro (if using) into the avocado. Season with the lime juice and salt to taste.

3 Serve immediately with your favorite corn chips (or try my Spiced Toasted Pita Chips, page 91). Avocado tends to spoil quickly, so leftovers won’t keep for longer than 12 hours or so.

4 For a spicy version, add 1 diced jalapeño to the mix. Omit the seeds for a just-a-bit-spicy version.
