Authentic Mexican Guacamole Recipe

Ingredients

3 Haas Avocados

1/4 cup red onion, finely diced

1/4 cup Roma tomatoes, finely diced

1/4 cup cilantro leaves, chopped (no stems)

1 Jalapeno or Serrano chile (about 1 tablespoon), finely diced

1/2 teaspoon sea salt (or maybe a little bit more!)

1 tablespoon lime juice, squeeze the juice from 3 key limes

Optional Garnish: cilantro leaves on stems, or sprinkling of Mexican Cojita Cheese

Instructions

1. Using a knife or avocado tool, slice avocados in half. Reserve the pits for later.
2. Remove the peels and place the avocado in a bowl. 
3. Mash the avocados until the consistency is smooth with just a few small lumps.
4. Add remaining ingredients to the bowl. Gently fold all ingredients together.
5. If serving guacamole as an appetizer, transfer Mexican Guacamole to a molcajete. 
6. Garnish with a few cilantro leaves on stems, or a sprinkling of Mexican Cojita Cheese.
7. Serve guacamole with restaurant-style tortilla chips.

Notes

• Control the heat factor: Jalapeno chiles are milder than Serrano chiles! 
• If your guacamole will not be enjoyed right away, add in an avocado pit or two, and squeeze a bit more lime juice on top. This will help the guacamole from turning brown.
