Description
A simple recipe for making delicious, creamy guacamole.
Ingredients
Scale
- 3 ripe avocados
- 1/2 cup finely chopped white onion
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
- 1 jalapeño, seeded and minced
- 1 lime, juiced
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions
- Cut the avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a medium bowl.
- Mash the avocado with a fork until you reach your desired consistency; leave some chunks for texture.
- Add the chopped onion, cilantro, minced jalapeño, lime juice, salt, and pepper to the bowl.
- Mix all ingredients gently until just combined.
- Taste and adjust salt or lime juice as needed.
- Serve immediately.
Notes

- If you prefer less heat, remove all seeds and white membranes from the jalapeño.
- Press plastic wrap directly onto the surface of the guacamole to minimize air exposure and slow browning.
