Star Wars Baby Yoda Guacamole Platter

Ingredients

3 to 4 cups guacamole* (1 cup = c. 240g)
Tortilla chips
1 black olive, cut in half through the middle (for the eyes)
1 slice of avocado (for the nose)
1 slice of red bell pepper (for the mouth)

* If making guacamole from scratch:

3 medium ripe avocados, stone removed and scooped from the peel
1 garlic clove, minced
2 Roma (plum) tomatoes, seeded and diced
¼ cup onion, finely diced (40g)
Juice from ½ lime
1 to 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro (coriander), minced
½ jalapeno, seeds and membrane removed, finely diced (optional)


Method

To make the guacamole:

1. Place all ingredients into a large bowl.

2. Smash avocado with a fork or potato masher.

3. Add all other guacamole ingredients and stir together until blended.

3. Best if served immediately. Can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator if needed. Guacamole will start to discolour within 1 day.

To assemble the Baby Yoda guacamole platter:

1. In the middle of a large platter, spoon about 2 cups of guacamole into a circle and smooth the top into a flat surface. Create ridges across the top to be forehead wrinkles.



2. Add about ½ to 1 cup of guacamole as ears on each side and shape as ears.

3. Place slices of black olives as eyes, a slice of red bell pepper as the mouth, and a piece of avocado as the nose.



4. Refrigerate until ready to serve, staying aware that the guacamole will discolour over time.

5. Before serving, arrange tortilla chips around the Baby Yoda face.


Et voila!
