Guacamole Ingredients
- 3 medium Haas avocados, pit and skin removed (510 grams yield)
- 6 tbsp red onion, diced (60 grams)
- 3 tbsp chopped cilantro
- 1 small jalapeño, seeds & veins removed, diced (15 grams)
- 2 tbsp lime juice (1 fl oz)
- 1/2 tsp sea salt
Instructions
- Prepare the Avocados: In a medium bowl, remove the pits and skins from the avocados. Scoop out the flesh and place it in the bowl ready to be mashed.
- Mash the Avocado: Add the sea salt and lime juice to the avocado flesh. Using a fork, mash the mixture to your desired consistency—either chunky or smooth depending on your preference.
- Incorporate the Vegetables: Add the diced red onion, chopped cilantro, and diced jalapeño (with seeds and veins removed). Gently fold these ingredients into the mashed avocado until evenly mixed.
- Adjust Seasoning: Taste the guacamole and adjust the seasoning if necessary, adding more salt or lime juice as you prefer.
- Serve and Enjoy: Transfer the guacamole to a serving bowl and serve immediately with tortilla chips, veggie sticks, or as a side accompaniment to your favorite dishes.
Notes
- For a spicier guacamole, leave some jalapeño seeds in or add more jalapeño.
- Use freshly squeezed lime juice for the best flavor.
- To prevent browning, cover guacamole with plastic wrap pressed directly onto the surface if not serving immediately.
- Ripe Haas avocados provide the best creamy texture and flavor for this recipe.
