Ingredients
3 large Hass avocados
1/4 cup white onion, finely diced
1 small serrano pepper, minced (seeds removed)
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, roughly chopped
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
Instructions
Slice the avocados in half vertically and remove the pits.
Scoop the flesh into a glass mixing bowl.
Mash the avocado with a fork or potato masher to your preferred consistency.
Add the diced white onion, minced serrano pepper, and chopped cilantro.
Pour in the fresh lime juice.
Sprinkle with sea salt.
Fold the ingredients together gently using a rubber spatula until just combined.
Notes
Select avocados that are dark in color and yield slightly to firm pressure. Use fresh lime juice rather than bottled to maintain the delicate acidity. Serve immediately to prevent oxidation or cover with plastic wrap pressed directly against the surface of the guacamole.
