Ingredients
- 3 whole ripe avocados
- 1 whole lime
- 0.5 teaspoons kosher salt
- 2 tablespoons red onion
- 2 tablespoons cilantro
- 1 small jalapeño (optional)
- 1 medium tomato (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Cut the avocados in half and remove the pits. Scoop out the avocado flesh into a medium mixing bowl.
Step 2
Juice the lime and pour the juice over the avocados immediately to prevent browning and to add flavor.
Step 3
Sprinkle the kosher salt over the avocados.
Step 4
Using a fork, gently mash the avocados to your desired consistency. For a creamy guacamole, mash well; for a chunkier texture, leave some avocado pieces intact.
Step 5
Finely dice the red onion and add it to the bowl.
Step 6
Chop the cilantro finely and mix it into the guacamole.
Step 7
If using jalapeño, finely chop it and add to the mixture for a bit of heat. Remove seeds for a milder flavor.
Step 8
If using a tomato, remove seeds and dice it finely. Gently fold the tomato into the guacamole.
Step 9
Taste the guacamole and adjust seasoning with additional salt or lime juice as needed.
Step 10
Serve immediately with tortilla chips, or use as a topping for tacos, burritos, or salads.
