Directions: |
Directions:1. Scoop avocado into a medium bowl. Add onion, cilantro, lime juice and salt. Mash well with a potato masher or fork, until no large chunks of avocado remain.
2. Add cucumber, Cotija and tomato. Stir with a fork to break up cheese and combine well. Serve garnished with chopped chili and a sprinkle of extra cheese.
TORTILLA CHIPS: Want to go all out and fry your own chips like at a Mexican restaurant? Start by lining a baking sheet with paper towels. Cut a stack of corn tortillas into sixths. In a large heavy skillet or pot, heat about 1-inch vegetable oil over medium heat 365º F. Add tortilla wedges to hot oil in small batches. Cook until golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes, turning once. Remove from oil with a slotted spoon; drain on paper towels, then sprinkle lightly salt. |

Notes: PREP TIPS: Warning: These tiny guys are kicky! In Mexico, they're called cola de rata (rat's tail) chiles, but in the States, they're usually marketed as an Asian ingredient.
