Thick and creamy with just the right zing, authentic guacamole shines with just a few simple ingredients. Give it a whirl and see for yourself!

Ingredients

  • 2 serrano peppers, minced
  • ¼ cup diced white onion
  • ¼ cup chopped cilantro
  • ¾ teaspoon kosher salt, plus more as needed
  • 3 Haas avocados, ripe
  • 2 tablespoons fresh-squeezed lime juice, plus more as needed
  • 1 Roma tomato, seeded and diced

Preparation

Combine serrano peppers, onion, cilantro, and salt in a work bowl or molcajete (Mexican-style mortar and pestle). Mash briefly.

Add the avocado flesh and mash to preferred texture, leaving some chunks for extra body.

Gently fold in lime juice and tomato. Taste guacamole and adjust seasoning with additional salt and lime juice as needed.

Let rest for 5 minutes before serving to let the flavors meld. Press plastic wrap directly onto the surface if reserving any longer to prevent browning.
