Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 150 grams Firm tofu
- 2 pieces (medium-sized) Avocado
- 1 piece Lime
- 2 tablespoons (chopped) Fresh cilantro
- 2 tablespoons (finely diced) Red onion
- 1 small (diced) Tomato
- 1 piece (finely diced, optional) Jalapeño
- 1 clove (minced) Garlic
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground cumin
Instructions
Press the firm tofu to remove excess water by wrapping it in a clean kitchen towel and placing a heavy object on top for 10 minutes.
While the tofu is draining, cut the avocados in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a mixing bowl.
Juice the lime and add the lime juice to the bowl to prevent the avocados from browning.
Mash the avocados with a fork until smooth but still slightly chunky, depending on your preferred texture.
Pat the tofu dry and crumble it into small pieces. Add the crumbled tofu to the bowl with the avocado and mix until well combined.
Stir in the chopped cilantro, diced red onion, diced tomato, jalapeño (if using), and minced garlic.
Season the mixture with salt and ground cumin, then mix thoroughly to combine all the flavors.
Taste the guacamole and adjust the seasoning if needed, adding more salt or lime juice to balance the flavors.
Serve immediately with tortilla chips, vegetable sticks, or as a topping for tacos or salads.
