Ingredients:

Corn Tortilla (1-2 servings)
- 50g fine yellow cornflour/maize
- 75ml warm water
- Pinch of salt

Guacamole (1-2 servings)
- 1 ripe ready to eat avocado
- Half lemon
- Half tomato
- A handful of coriander
- Pinch of salt
- Pinch of black pepper (or white)

How to make Corn Tortillas:

Put cornflour, water and salt in a bowl and mix until you reach a smooth dough.
Divide the dough in small balls of 30g each and place one in the middle of the chopping board (previously wrapped in cling film) and press with a flat surface firmly (use a saucepan)
Gently peel off the dough and cook on a pre-heated non-stick frying pan for 1 minute each side.
Dispose the warm tortilla on a chopping board and cut it in fancy triangle shape as you like.
Bake them in a pre-heated oven at 200C for 5-6 minutes (look for a golden colour)

How to make House Guacamole:

Cut 1 avocado in half and remove the skin with a spoon.
Chop the coriander and tomato and add to the bowl with salt, black pepper and a squeeze of fresh lemon (half)
Mash all with a fork until you reach a creamy texture.
