It’s National Guacamole Day, so we have the perfect recipe for recreating it at home

It may be the reason that no one under 30 can afford to buy a house anymore (who needs a first home when you’ve got brunch?), but we’ll always have a soft spot for avocado. And as we all know, the superlative iteration of this fruit (yes, it’s a fruit) is guacamole. 

Obviously, you don’t need an excuse to whip up a batch, but as it’s National Guacamole Day there’s never been a better one. And lucky for you, we have the definitive recipe, courtesy of Maya, the pop-up-turned-permanent restaurant found in our Houses all over the world.

Best enjoyed with a Margarita in the living room of a flat that you’ll never afford to own.
