Ingredients
- 4 avocados
- ½ teaspoon garlic salt
- ¼ cup cilantro chopped
- ¼ cup lime juice about 2-3 limes
Instructions
- Cut the avocados in half and remove the pit carefully.
- Using a blunt knife, score the inside of the avocado (cut both lines vertically and horizontally in order to create smaller cubes of avocados, making it easier to mash).
- Scoop out the flesh of the avocado with a spoon, making sure to avoid the little seed at the top of the avocado.
- Place avocado flesh in a bowl and add all ingredients.
- Gently mash the ingredients with a fork (or potato masher) and mash to preferred chunkiness (I prefer to leave it on the chunkier side, but you can go as far as to puree it).
- Serve immediately and garnish with fresh limes or cilantro. (I like to serve in a molcajete).
Notes
You can always divide the recipe in half to make it easier for smaller servings.
If serving later, place guacamole in an airtight container and squeeze juice of ½ lime on top of the guacamole. Place plastic wrap on the surface of the guacamole. Make sure to press down on the plastic wrap so it touches all edges of the guacamole.
Refrigerate guacamole for up to 3 days. If using plastic wrap and lime juice, guacamole may last up to 4 days without browning, but taste may become more bitter.
