Ingredients
- Avocados - 3, ripe
- Onions - 1/4 cup, chopped
- Lime juice - 1 1/2 Tbsp
- Roma tomatoes - 1, large, deseeded and diced
- Cilantro leaves - 1 Tbsp, chopped

- Ground cumin - 1/2 Tsp
- Salt - 1/2 Tsp or to taste
Instructions
- Cut avocados in half, lengthwise and use a spoon to scoop out the seed. Then, use the same spoon to scoop out each avocado’s flesh and add to a medium bowl.
- Scatter lime juice over avocado then use a fork to gently mash until creamy, but still chunky. (Keep some texture).
- Add diced tomato, chopped cilantro, cumin, salt and the minced jalapeño (if using) to the avocado and stir to combine.
- Serve immediately or cover with plastic wrap by pushing the plastic wrap down onto the guacamole and refrigerate up to one day.
Notes
- Try not to over mash or puree avocados when making guacamole. You want a chunky dip, not a completely smooth one. So, when you’re making the guacamole, gently mash things together with a fork and leave some texture.
- Ensure you take a ripe avocados to avoid a raw taste that displeases the taste buds!
