Base Guacamole

Method

Prepare the base

  1. 1

    Halve the avocados, remove pits, and scoop the flesh into a mixing bowl. Mash to your desired chunky texture.

  2. 2

    Stir in lime juice to help prevent browning.

  3. 3

    Add red onion, tomato, jalapeño, and minced garlic. Mix gently until just combined.

  4. 4

    Fold in cilantro, salt, and pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.

Chipotle topping

  1. 5

    Make the chipotle paste

    In a small bowl, combine minced chipotle peppers with the adobo sauce to form a smoky paste.

  2. 6

    Top the guacamole

    Dollop some of the chipotle paste on top of the finished guacamole or stir in a portion to distribute heat. Reserve the rest for serving.

  3. 7

    Garnish and serve

    Optionally garnish with extra cilantro and a lime wedge, then serve with tortilla chips.

Serving

  1. 8

    Transfer the finished guacamole to a serving bowl. Serve immediately with tortilla chips, veggies, or as a topping for tacos.
