Equipment
Ingredients
- 3 ripe avocados
- 1 Red onion
- 2 Limes
- 1 Red chilli
- 4 Tomatoes
- handful Corriander/cilantro
Instructions
- Remove the skin and stone from the avocados, then roughly chop the flesh and add it to a mixing bowl. Using a fork, mash the avocado to your preferred consistency, keep it slightly chunky for a better texture.
- Finely dice the red onion, chilli and coriander. Deseed the tomatoes, then finely dice them.
- Add the tomato, red onion, chilli and coriander to the mashed avocado and mix well to combine
- Season with salt and pepper, then squeeze in the lime juice to taste (using both limes if desired).
- Give everything a final mix and serve immediately.
Notes
- Use ripe but not overripe avocados for the best creamy texture and flavour.
- Adjust the chilli to suit your spice preference, or remove it for a milder version.
- Fresh lime juice not only adds flavour but also helps prevent the avocado from browning.
- For the best taste, serve immediately, as guacamole is freshest on the day it’s made.
- If needed, store with cling film pressed directly onto the surface to minimise air exposure.
