Ingredients
- 2 ripe medium avocados
- 2-3 green chiles (Anaheim, Pueblo or Hatch)
- 1-2 jalapeños (optional, see notes)
- ¼ slice of a white onion
- 2 tablespoons cilantro, diced
- 1 lime
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt, plus more to taste
Instructions
- Begin by roasting and peeling 2-3 green chiles as described in this blog post.
- Roast the slice of onion on a comal (flat griddle) until charred (but not burned) all the way around.
- Dice the onion, green chiles, and cilantro.
- In a medium bowl, mash the avocados with the back of a fork or a masher until it reaches your desired consistency.
- Add in the onion, chiles, and cilantro.
- Add the juice of a lime and mix together until everything is incorporated with the mashed avocado.
- Allow each person to salt their own serving of guacamole (salting it will speed up the browning process).
- Serve immediately.
- To store, transfer any leftover guacamole into an air-tight container. Then, press a piece of plastic wrap right on top of the guacamole. Cover with the lid and store in the refrigerator for one day.

Notes
- For a spicier guacamole, roast one or two jalapeños, dice them up and add to the guacamole along with the green chiles.
- For a much milder guacamole, add less green chiles than what the recipe calls for. Another option is to use a spoon to scoop out the veins and seeds from the inside of the chiles, where most of the heat is found.
- Do not use too much onion or else the guacamole will turn out sweet.
- Do not burn the onion or it will taste bitter.
