Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 pieces ripe avocados
- 1 piece lime
- 1 teaspoon Kosher salt
- 0.5 piece small onion
- 1 piece Roma tomato
- 3 tablespoons cilantro leaves
- 1 piece jalapeño chili
- 1 piece garlic clove
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cumin
Instructions
Cut the avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a large mixing bowl.
Slice the lime in half and squeeze the juice over the avocados to prevent browning. Add the kosher salt.
Use a fork to mash the avocados to your desired consistency – chunky or smooth.
Finely chop the onion, Roma tomato, cilantro leaves, and jalapeño chili (remove seeds for less heat) and add them to the bowl.
Mince the garlic clove and add it to the mixture, along with the ground cumin.
Mix everything together gently, ensuring the ingredients are evenly distributed.
Taste and adjust seasoning as needed with additional salt or lime juice.
Serve immediately with tortilla chips, or refrigerate with plastic wrap pressed directly onto the guacamole’s surface to prevent oxidation.
