Description
A vibrant, flavour‑packed guacamole made with ripe avocados, fresh tomatoes, onions, cilantro, and a touch of heat from serranos and jalapeños—ready in about 15 minutes and perfect as a snack or topping.
Ingredients
- 5 ripe avocados
- ½ cup white onion, diced
- 1 cup Roma tomatoes, diced
- ¾ cup fresh cilantro, finely chopped
- 2 teaspoons serrano pepper, diced
- 1 tablespoon jalapeño pepper, diced
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Cut open the avocados around the pit, remove the pits (keep them if storing leftovers), and scoop the flesh into a large bowl.
- Finely dice the onion, tomatoes, and cilantro. Add them to the bowl with the avocado. Begin to mash and combine with clean hands for best texture.
- Stir in the serrano and jalapeño peppers, salt and pepper. Adjust heat to your taste.
- Serve immediately for peak freshness.
Notes
- Choose ripe but still firm avocados (yield when gently pressed but not mushy) for the best texture.
- If tomatoes are very juicy, remove some seeds/liquid so the guacamole doesn’t become watery.
- To adjust spice level: reduce serrano/jalapeño for mild, increase for more heat.
- If storing leftovers, press plastic wrap directly onto the surface and seal in the fridge. The avocado pit alone doesn’t prevent browning. :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}
