Servings: 6 Servings
Cooking Time: 20 mins
Ingredients
- 3 ripe medium avocados
- 1/4 cup finely chopped onion
- 1 ½ tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 1/4 cup cilantro leaves and tender stems, chopped
- 1 small tomato, chopped, optional
- 1 to 2 teaspoons finely chopped jalapeño pepper, with seeds and membrane removed, optional
- 1/2 teaspoon salt, or more to taste
Method
- Prepare onions: Add 1/4 cup finely chopped onion to a small bowl and cover with cold water. Set aside for 5 minutes, drain, and then rinse
- Make guacamole: Cut the avocados in half lengthwise, remove the pit, scoop out the flesh, and add to a bowl. Use a fork to mash the avocado into a chunky dip.
- Stir in the drained and rinsed onions, 1 ½ tablespoons lime juice, 1/4 cup chopped cilantro, 1 small chopped tomato (optional), and 1/4 teaspoon salt. If you are adding it, add the finely chopped jalapeño. Taste the guacamole and adjust with more salt or lime juice (I usually end up adding 1/4 teaspoon more salt and a spritz of extra lime).
