It's avocado season again

My favorite cookbook is a small paperback called 'Flavours of Mexico' by Marlena Spieler.
It is the definitive guide to authentic Mexican cuisine.The way it is written is fresh off the grill,fragrant, absolutely "bubbling with enthusiam" and served with fresh coriander, a wedge of lime,a shot of tequila and chopped fresh green chilli. Your mouth drools as you read the descriptive recipes.You are literally transported to rural Mexico where the ageless earthy scent of warm tortillas and carnitas permeate the air. Would love to go back there one day but a bit scared of Montezumas revenge and of course all the nasty killings that seem to go on.
