“Mexican food is quite bland to me and guacamole is the most over rated glop they make. Why do they have to re-fry the beans? Couldn’t get it right the first time?

Had a Mexican girlfriend a long time ago. Taught me how to make guacamole. Biggest tip was to make a lot of it, not just from one avocado but at least a half dozen. Some tomatoes, some onions, salt and some picante sauce for some heat.

As for refried beans. Lots of bean dishes improve the second or third time around. Although not my favorite dish, I usually judge a Mexican restaurant by its refried beans. If they get them right, chances are they’ll get the other things right too.

[Veto!]

Love avocados in salad or on toast with a poached egg on top. But guacamole tastes terrible to me. I don’t like Mexican food at all.
