Suggestions

I. Be careful when cooking the shrimp. Place them in boiling water and drain after a minute. If they overcook, they will become dry and stringy.
II. BE CAREFUL when cooking potatoes. Acidic water forms a tougher crust on the potato, which may feel raw to the touch but may be cooked inside.
III. After the indicated time, try breaking off a small piece with your fingers. If it doesn't squash, let it cook for a few more minutes.
IV. Rainbow pepper is a mix of different peppers easily found in supermarkets. If you don't have any, you can use white pepper if you like.
V. Hass avocados are tastier than regular avocados. They should be dark in color and slightly soft on the surface. If they're too hard, don't use them.
