Ingredients
Method
- Cut avocados in half then remove the seed. Scoop out the flesh and add to a medium bowl and mash until creamy.
- Add lemon juice to the mashed avocado. Stir in the chopped tomatoes, cilantro, garlic, onions, olive oil, and salt.
- Taste the guacamole and adjust with additional salt or lemon juice as needed.
- Serve immediately or cover with plastic wrap by pushing the wrap onto the surface of the guacamole to prevent browning and refrigerate for up to one day.
Notes
- You can swap lemon juice for lime juice for a more zesty flavor, or use both.
- Add an extra clove of garlic for more kick.
- For spice, finely chop jalapeño (seeds removed).
- Save the pit as decoration but it does not prevent browning.
- Store guacamole with water on top and drain before serving to preserve freshness.
- Increase lime juice to slow oxidation and browning.
