Instructions
- Cut the avocados in half and remove the pit with a sharp knife. Scoop out the fruit using a spoon and transfer it into a medium mixing bowl.
- Mash the avocados using a fork, a potato masher, or a molcajete until it reaches your desired consistency.
- Stir in the chopped cilantro, tomato, onion, lime juice, jalapeño, and salt. Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed.
Notes
- Use ripe avocados. To make sure your avocado is ripe, it should be a little soft when you give it a squeeze but still firm. If it’s too soft and leaves a big indentation, then it’s overripe. You can also remove the little brown stem at the base to check. If you’re able to remove it easily and the color underneath is green, then there’s a good chance it’s ripe. If the color underneath is brown, it’s likely overripe.
- Tomato: Adding this is optional. Some people like it, while others prefer theirs without it. This is totally a personal preference.
- Season generously with salt. Don’t be afraid of adding salt. Start with the suggested amount in the recipe and then taste it to see if it needs more.
