GUACAMOLE SAUCE WITH MEAT BALLS




GUACAMOLE SAUCE
WITH MEAT BALLS

 

 
I like Mexican food, it is colorful, tasty and exotic. Mexican cuisine is one of well known and reach cuisines in the world.  Generally it  is known by very hot food. But it doesn't need to be very hot when the food is spicy. Cumin, coriander, cinnamon are favorite spices in Mexican cooking.  Tomatoes, avocados, pineapples, chillies and cocoa are all growing in Mexico. These products are very important in Mexican cooking.
My recipe is mixture of Turkish meat ball and Mexican tacos. It is a good chose for week end food.
