Guacamole Ingredients

Method

Guacamole Preparation Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Start by gathering all your ingredients. Rinse the cilantro and jalapeño pepper under cold water. Peel and pit the avocados.

  2. 2

    Mash the Avocados

    In a medium-sized bowl, scoop out the flesh of the avocados using a spoon. Use a fork or a potato masher to mash the avocados to your desired level of creaminess.

  3. 3

    Add Lime Juice

    Pour the lime juice over the mashed avocados. This adds flavor and helps prevent the avocados from browning.

  4. 4

    Chop and Add Vegetables

    Finely chop the red onion, jalapeño pepper (remove seeds for less heat), and cilantro. Add them to the bowl with the mashed avocados.

  5. 5

    Season the Mixture

    Sprinkle the salt and black pepper over the mixture. Stir everything together until well combined. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Transfer the guacamole to a serving bowl. Optionally, garnish with a sprig of cilantro or a slice of lime. Serve immediately with tortilla chips or as a topping for your favorite dishes.
