Nachos with guacamole - I make this recipe EVERYTIME I have friends over. It is so simple to make, just a few ingredients (that I happen to always have in my kitchen cupboards), a few minutes to prepare and results in such a delicious, colourful looking snack of delicious sharing nachos platter. I serve this with two dips - a spicy garlicky guacamole using our Smelly Garlic pickle and soured cream with chives and Hot Chilli Hot Sprinkle.
My spicy nachos with guacamole is a big hit with both adults and kids alike and with the different dips on the platter, everyone ends up with different flavours with every bite.

To make the nachos platter, in an oven proof serving platter spread out half the nachos. Sprinkle over half the cheese and jalepeno.
Now layer the rest of the nachos, cheese and jalepeno.
Put in the oven for 7 minutes.
To make the garlicky guacamole, mash the 1 ½ avocado with the back of your fork, add onions, tomatoes, lime juice, and Smelly Garlic pickle. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Slice the last ½ avocado, drizzle a bit of lime juice and keep separately.
In a separate small serving bowl mix soured cream, chives and sprinkle some Hot Chilli Hot Sprinkle on top.
Bring out the nachos platter and dollop a little bit of the guacamole in the centre, decorate the plain chopped avocado around the platter. Dollop some sour cream on the nachos platter. Serve the rest of the dips in a separate small bowls.

These nachos were the most flavourful version that I’ve ever tried. The smelly garlic pickle is the icing on the cake and I can’t imagine nachos without them. Highly recommend !
