Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 whole ripe avocados
- 1 whole lime
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 2 tablespoons cilantro
- 0.25 cups red onion
- 1 whole jalapeño
- 1 whole Roma tomato
- 1 clove garlic
- 0.25 teaspoons ground cumin
Instructions
Cut the avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a medium-sized mixing bowl.
Mash the avocados with a fork until you reach your desired consistency; chunkier or smoother depending on preference.
Cut the lime in half and squeeze all the juice into the bowl. Stir to combine and prevent the avocados from browning.
Season the mixture with salt and ground cumin, then stir again.
Finely chop the cilantro and add it to the bowl.
Dice the red onion, Roma tomato, and jalapeño (removing the seeds for less heat if preferred), and mix them into the avocado mash.
Mince the garlic clove and stir it into the mixture, ensuring everything is evenly combined.
Taste and adjust the seasoning with additional salt, lime juice, or cilantro as needed.
Transfer the guacamole to a serving bowl and serve immediately with tortilla chips or as a topping for tacos, burritos, or other dishes.
