The Best Ever Guacamole

Total Time: 30 mins Preparation Time: 30 mins

Ingredients

• Servings: 4
• 2 ripe avocados (the small bumpy ones, not the large smooth ones)
• 2 large garlic cloves, minced
• 1/2 cup yellow onions or 1/2 cup red onion, finely diced
• 1/8 teaspoon pepper
• 1 fresh lime
• 1 teaspoon kosher salt

Recipe

• 1 mince the garlic (add more or less to taste).
• 2 dice the onion (ditto).
• 3 cut avocado in half and twist to separate. stab the pit with the long sharp edge of your knife: twist it, and the pit will come right out attached to the knife.
• 4 with a spoon, scoop out contents into a glass bowl.
• 5 add the garlic and onion.
• 6 using two knives cross-cut the mixture until it is in smaller chunks, then mash with a fork.
• 7 squeeze in 1/2 the lime, pepper and salt. taste. add more salt and/or lime as needed.
• 8 i don't care for a lot of additions, but cilantro is one i like. avocados are too subtle, so adding too many other ingredients obscures its wonderful, nutty flavor.
• 9 also consider black olives, tomatoes (de-seeded and diced) or jalapenos.
• 10 serve with chips and home-made salsa, or add to any sw or mexican dish.
