Guacamole is so easy to make. The key is great avocados and garlic! By the time dinner rolled around, I had already eaten about 1/3 of the guacamole (i had to make sure that the flavor didn't change too much before dinner)
Serves 3-4 people as a side dish
Ingredients:
2 ripe avocados
2 cloves of garlic
3 T diced onion
1/2 diced tomato
1 t lime juice
salt to taste
1. Cut each avocado in half, and take the seed out by hacking it lightly with a knife and giving a quick twist.
2. Score the inside of the avocado about 1/2 - 1 cm apart vertically and horizontally.
3. Pick the most ripe avocados and using a spoon, scoop the flesh out into a bowl, reserving the less ripe half for later.
4. Add the minced garlic (make sure you mince it very finely, or use a garlic press), onion, tomato and mix.
5. Stir in the final half of the avocado. I do this because I like chunks of avocado in my guacamole. If you put it all in, everything will just get mashed.
6. Add the lime juice and salt to taste.
You may want to make this at least an hour before you want to serve to let the flavors distribute evenly.
