👨‍🍳 Cooking Instructions

Full recipe instructions for preparing Classic Guacamole

🔥 Prep

  • Halve and pit the 3 avocados, then scoop out the flesh into a bowl.
  • Dice the 0.5 onion (about ½ small onion) into fine pieces.
  • Dice the 1 tomato, removing seeds if desired, into small cubes.
  • Roughly chop 2 tbsp cilantro (about a small handful).
  • Measure out 1 tbsp lime juice and 0.5 tsp salt, set aside.

🔥 Cook

  • 1. Using a fork or potato masher, mash the avocado flesh in the bowl until mostly smooth but with some chunks, for about 1 minute.
  • 2. Add the diced onion, tomato, and chopped cilantro to the mashed avocado.
  • 3. Stir the mixture gently for 30 seconds to combine the vegetables.
  • 4. Pour in the measured 1 tbsp lime juice and sprinkle the 0.5 tsp salt over the mixture.
  • 5. Toss the guacamole for another 30 seconds until evenly coated and the lime juice is distributed.
  • 6. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed, then let it rest for 2 minutes to allow flavors to meld.

🔥 Serve

  • Transfer the guacamole to a serving bowl and smooth the top with a spoon.
  • Garnish with an extra sprinkle of cilantro and a lime wedge on the side.
  • Serve immediately with tortilla chips, sliced veggies, or as a topping for tacos and burritos.
