Add half the onion and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes or until softened. Add the the garlic, ground coriander, cumin and oregano and cook, stirring, for 30 seconds or until fragrant. Stir in the tomato puree and 80ml of water. Bring to the boil, then lower to a simmer and cook for 4 - 5 minutes until the mixture thickens slightly. Season with salt and pepper.
3. Combine the cherry tomatoes, pineapple, corinader, half the lime juice, and the remaining onion and oil in a bowl. Season. Mash the avocado and remaining lime juice together in a separate bowl. Season.
