Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 pieces ripe Hass avocados
- 1 medium Roma tomato
- 0.25 cup red onion
- 0.25 cup fresh cilantro
- 1 piece jalapeño pepper
- 1 large lime
- 1 large garlic clove
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 package optional tortilla chips or veggies, for serving
Instructions
Cut the Hass avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a medium mixing bowl.
Mash the avocados gently with a fork or potato masher until smooth but slightly chunky, depending on your preferred texture.
Dice the Roma tomato into small pieces and add it to the bowl.
Finely dice the red onion to measure 1/4 cup, then add it to the guacamole mixture.
Chop the fresh cilantro leaves finely and add 1/4 cup of it to the bowl.
Remove the seeds and veins from the jalapeño pepper (for less heat), then finely mince it and add to the mixture. Use gloves if needed to protect your hands from the pepper oils.
Mince the garlic clove and add it to the bowl.
Cut the lime in half and squeeze its juice over the ingredients in the bowl, using a strainer or your fingers to catch any seeds.
Sprinkle in the sea salt and ground black pepper, then gently fold all the ingredients together until well combined.
Taste the guacamole and adjust salt, lime juice, or jalapeño according to your preference.
Transfer the guacamole to a serving dish, and serve immediately with tortilla chips or fresh-cut veggies. If not serving right away, press plastic wrap directly to the surface of the guacamole to prevent browning and refrigerate.
