- 2 ripe avocados
- 1 lime
- 1/4 cup red onion, finely diced
- 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
- salt, to taste
Instructions
- Cut the avocados in half lengthwise and remove the pits. Scoop the avocado flesh into a mixing bowl using a spoon.
- Using a fork or potato masher, mash the avocado until it reaches your desired consistency. Some prefer chunky guacamole, while others prefer it smooth.
- Cut the lime in half and squeeze the juice over the mashed avocado. This not only adds a zesty flavor but also helps prevent the avocados from browning.
- Add the finely diced red onion and chopped fresh cilantro to the bowl with the mashed avocado. Stir well to combine all the ingredients evenly.
- Taste the guacamole and add salt as needed to enhance the flavors. Stir again to ensure the salt is evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
- Transfer the guacamole to a serving bowl and serve immediately.
