Guacamole

I didn't have everything I wanted for this recipe, but I made do.

2 avocados
1/3 large-ish tomato, diced
about 2 tbsp pickled jalapeños, diced
1/3 med. red onion, diced
2 tbsp. dried cilantro
salt & pepper
2 tsp. tamarind concentrate



The dried cilantro was a substitute for fresh, a regrettable one as there was no cilantro character in the finished gauc. The other sub was the tamarind concentrate. It's hard to keep limes around with Mo, who loves to eat the rinds off them, and I also found I was out of bottled lemon or lime juice. The tamarind concentrate was on hand for Putt Thai sauce for making Pad Thai. It's salty and tart, appropriate.

Turned out to be pretty good guacamole, all in all.
