Ingredients

• 3 pieces ripe avocados

• 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

Directions

Step 1

Cut the avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a large mixing bowl.

Step 2

Slice the lime in half and squeeze the juice over the avocados to prevent browning. Add the kosher salt.

Step 3

Use a fork to mash the avocados to your desired consistency – chunky or smooth.

Step 4

Finely chop the onion, Roma tomato, cilantro leaves, and jalapeño chili (remove seeds for less heat) and add them to the bowl.

Step 5

Mince the garlic clove and add it to the mixture, along with the ground cumin.

Step 6

Mix everything together gently, ensuring the ingredients are evenly distributed.

Step 7

Taste and adjust seasoning as needed with additional salt or lime juice.

Step 8

Serve immediately with tortilla chips, or refrigerate with plastic wrap pressed directly onto the guacamole’s surface to prevent oxidation.
