Ingredients
- 3 pieces ripe avocados
- 1 piece lime
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 cups onion
- 2 tablespoons cilantro
- 1 piece jalapeño pepper
- 1 piece tomato
- 1 clove garlic (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Cut the avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a medium-sized mixing bowl.
Step 2
Mash the avocados gently with a fork until you achieve your desired texture (chunky or smooth).
Step 3
Roll the lime on a cutting board to release its juices, then cut it in half. Squeeze the juice from one half over the mashed avocado to prevent browning and to add flavor.
Step 4
Add the salt and mix gently to combine.
Step 5
Finely dice the onion, cilantro, and jalapeño pepper (remove seeds for less heat) and stir them into the avocado mixture.
Step 6
Chop the tomato into small pieces and gently fold it into the guacamole.
Step 7
If using garlic, mince it finely and mix it into the guacamole.
Step 8
Taste and adjust seasoning by adding more salt or lime juice if needed.
Step 9
Serve immediately with tortilla chips, as a topping for tacos, or alongside any of your favorite dishes.
