Equipment
- 1 Large Mixing Bowl
- 1 potato masher or two sturdy forks
- 1 rubber spatula
Ingredients
- 5 ripe hass avocados
- 1/4 cup sundried tomatoes, small chop
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup yellow onion, small chop
- 1/3 cup cilantro, small chop
- 2 tbsp fresh lime juice
- 2 jalapenos, small chop
- 1/4 tsp kosher salt
- 1/4 tsp cracked black pepper
Instructions
Prepare the avocados
- Cut the avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a medium-sized bowl. Mash the avocado with a fork to your desired consistency (some like it chunky, others prefer it smoother).
Add the aromatics
- Add the chopped onion, minced garlic, chopped cilantro, chopped sun-dried tomatoes, and finely chopped jalapeño to the bowl with the mashed avocado.
Season
- Squeeze the juice of one lime over the avocado mixture and add salt and pepper.
Mix well
- Gently fold all the ingredients together until everything is evenly distributed. Be careful not to overmix if you prefer a chunkier texture.
Taste and Serve
- Taste the guacamole and adjust the seasoning as needed. You might want to add more lime juice, salt, or pepper according to your taste preferences.
- You can serve it immediately or refrigerate it for about 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together before serving.
Notes
What do I mean by small chop?
The term 'chop" is a casual, imprecise term that simply means to roughly cut food into bite-sized pieces. So for a small chop smaller than a regular chop but larger than a mince.
