Description
Creamy guacamole with avocado mashed smooth, then mixed with food-processed red onion, tomatoes, jalapeno, lime zest, and lime juice. Rested thirty minutes before serving.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ripe California Avocado
- 0.5 red onion
- 2 ripe tomatoes
- 0.5 jalapeno
- 1 lime
- 0.5 bunch cilantro
- salt
- pepper
Instructions
- Cream the avocado in a large bowl into a smooth paste. Set aside.
- In a food processor, pulse onion, tomato, jalapeno, and lime zest and lime juice until finely chopped and almost a puree.
- Transfer the tomato mixture to the creamed avocado and mix well.
- Taste and season as needed.
- Let sit for 30 minutes before serving.
Notes
- Press plastic wrap directly onto the surface and refrigerate to keep the guacamole from browning; it’s best the day it’s made.
- Half a jalapeno gives a mild kick — leave in the seeds or use a whole pepper for more heat.
- No food processor? Finely chop the onion, tomato, and jalapeno by hand instead.
- Use a soft, ripe avocado and ripe tomatoes for the creamiest result.
