Guacamole
Guacamole is an avocado-based recipe dip that originated in Mexico. The Aztecs originally made guacamole by mashing ripe avocados with a molcajete.
- 2 medium ripe avocados, (1 pound total, quartered, pitted, and peeled)
- 0.25 cup fresh cilantro, (chopped)
- 0.25 cup white onion, (minced)
- 1 medium fresh Serrano Chile, (without seeds, minced)
- 2 teaspoons fresh lime juice, (or to taste)
- 1.5 teaspoons salt, (or to taste)
- 0.25 cups water
- 2 Roma tomatoes, (diced)
Mash together all ingredients in a bowl with a fork until smooth, using enough water for desired consistency.
Guacamole can be made 1 hour ahead and chilled for best flavor. Its surface should be covered with plastic wrap.
