Składniki

2 tbsp finely chopped white onion (or red, brown or yellow)

1 tbsp finely chopped jalapeno or serrano chilli (or other chilli of choice) (adjust to taste)

1/2 tsp salt (, plus more to taste)

1/4 cup roughly chopped coriander/cilantro leaves

2 medium avocados (or 1 very large one) (Note 1)

Lime juice (, to taste (I use 1/4 - 1/2 lime)

Optional: 1 ripe tomato (, peeled, deseeded and chopped)

Wskazówki

Place the onion, jalapeño, salt and half the coriander on a cutting board and use a fork to mash until juicy. OR do this in a mortar and pestle - grind into a paste.

Scrape into a bowl, add avocado and remaining coriander, and mash to desired consistency.

Do a taste test then adjust to your taste: salt, lime juice for sour, more chilli for spiciness.

If using tomatoes, stir through.

Serve with corn chips!

Notatki

There are plenty of flavour variation options. Don’t let anyone tell you what you should or shouldn’t put in your guac – make it the way you want! Here are some suggestions:

Garlic – add a small clove when mashing the onion;

Cumin – add a small pinch or two, just a hint of extra flavour;

Tomato – stir through diced tomato and stir through. (To chop the tomato, halve and remove watery centre then chop, see my Bruschetta video if you want a quick tutorial)

Coriander / cilantro substitute – use chives instead! It’s terrific!

Avocado Hummus – For all those times when you can’t decide whether to make hummus or guacamole, OR when avocado is extortionately expensive!!

Chunky or smooth – I like mine on the chunky side usually but it depends on who I’m serving. To be honest, smoother looks better when serving at a gathering. But for day to day purposes, I make it lumpier 🙂 In Mexico, it’s served on the chunkier side.

Sour cream and cream cheese – these are a no go zone for me because they dilute the flavour of the avocado. I’d rather make Avocado Hummus! But if it’s what you like, feel free to stir it in!
