- 1/4 cup cilantro optional, chopped, fresh
- 2 tomato diced
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic minced
- 1 Serrano chili pepper seeded and diced, or jalapeño
Instructions
- Peel and scoop out the avocado, discarding the seed, and place in a bowl or molcajete.
- Mash the avocados thoroughly.
- Add the chopped tomatoes.
- Add the chopped onions, minced garlic, salt and pepper, and chopped cilantro.
- Squeeze in some fresh lime juice.
- Stir so all ingredients are evenly distributed through the dip. Serve immediately while fresh.
Notes
- Use all fresh ingredients, including fresh avocados, tomatoes and cilantro.
- Use freshly squeezed lime juice and not imitation lime juice.
Make sure that the avocados are ripe, but not overly ripe or your guacamole will be mushy. You can tell that the avocados are ripe by the color and firmness.
They should be a deep green color to purple, but not black. If they have turned black, then they are overripe. If they are brown under the stem, then they are past their prime. Avocados should be firm, yet not hard, and should not have any soft spots.
