Guacamole

4 each ripe Hass avocados

3 tbsp Fresh lime juice

1 1/2 tsp kosher salt

1/2 tsp ground black pepper

1 each ripe tomato, seeded and finely diced

1/2 each small red onion, finely minced

1/2 cup Fresh cilantro, chopped

1 each jalapeño, seeded and finely minced (adjust to heat preference)

1 each garlic clove, finely minced

1/4 tsp ground cumin (optional)

1 tsp extra-virgin olive oil (optional, for sheen)

To serve

12 cups tortilla chips

4 each Lime wedges

Method

Guacamole

Prepare avocados

Halve the avocados lengthwise, remove pits, and scoop flesh into a large mixing bowl.

Mash to desired texture

Using a fork or potato masher, mash the avocado to your preferred consistency: leave some larger chunks for texture or mash smooth for a creamier dip.

Add acid and seasoning

Immediately add the fresh lime juice, kosher salt, and ground black pepper to the mashed avocado. Stir to combine; the lime prevents browning and seasons the base.

Incorporate aromatics and mix-ins

Fold in the finely minced red onion, minced garlic, minced jalapeño, diced tomato (seeded to reduce liquid), and chopped cilantro. Mix gently until evenly distributed, taking care not to overwork the avocado.

Adjust flavor

Taste and adjust seasoning: add more salt or lime juice as needed. If using, stir in ground cumin for a subtle earthy note and drizzle the olive oil for a glossy finish.

Chill briefly (optional)

If time allows, cover the guacamole tightly with plastic wrap (press wrap directly onto the surface to minimize air exposure) and refrigerate for 15–30 minutes to let flavors meld. Bring back to near room temperature before serving for best texture.

To serve

Transfer the guacamole to a serving bowl. Garnish with a few cilantro leaves or a light dusting of cumin if desired. Serve with tortilla chips and lime wedges alongside for squeezing.
