Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 large ripe avocados
- 2 medium Roma tomatoes
- 0.5 large red onion
- 0.25 cup, chopped fresh cilantro
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 1 small jalapeño pepper
- 1 clove garlic
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cumin
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
1. Halve the avocados, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a mixing bowl. Mash gently with a fork, leaving it slightly chunky for texture.
2. Dice the Roma tomatoes into small pieces and add them to the bowl with the avocados.
3. Finely chop the red onion and fresh cilantro, then mix them into the bowl.
4. Remove the seeds and finely mince the jalapeño pepper. Add to the salsa for some heat. (If you prefer milder salsa, skip this step or use half a jalapeño.)
5. Mince the garlic clove finely, either with a knife or a garlic press, and stir it into the mixture.
6. Drizzle the olive oil and freshly squeezed lime juice over the salsa, then sprinkle in the ground cumin, salt, and black pepper.
7. Gently fold the salsa ingredients together until evenly combined. Taste and adjust seasonings if necessary.
8. Transfer the salsa to a serving bowl, garnish with a sprig of cilantro if desired, and serve with tortilla chips, tacos, or your favorite dishes.
