We thought it was high time that someone gave guacamole a facelift, and what better way than by using cucumbers to create Cucamole? We wanted to try and create the summeriest guac that has ever existed - and cucumbers add so much texture and freshness to our favourite Mexican side. Perfect for dipping tortilla chips, or for stuffing inside your next burrito - this creamy Cucamole is absolutely delicious and packs a real punch with the help of one small green chilli.
