Yield: 1 Bowl
- 3 ripe Avocados
- Freshly squeezed Juice of 1 Lime
- 1 small Roma Tomato finely diced
- 1/4 cup Red Onion finely chopped
- 1 Jalapeño seeded and minced
- 2 tablespoons fresh Cilantro chopped
- 1 clove Garlic peeled and minced
- 1/4 teaspoon ground Cumin
- Salt and freshly ground Black Pepper to taste
Starting at the top, with a very sharp knife, cut down into each avocado until you hit the pit. Cut completely around the avocado, top to bottom, touching the pit the entire time.
Pull the two halves of the avocado apart and remove the pit with a spoon.
Use the spoon to scoop the avocado out of the skin. (Some people like to score the avocado with a knife before scooping.) Make sure to gently scrap the skin to get the dark, creamy "good stuff."
Place 2/3 to 3/4 of the softest avocados in a mixing bowl. Using a fork, roughly mash them.
Place the remaining firmest avocados on a cutting board or plate and chop into 1/4 to 1/2-inch pieces. Add these to the mashed avocado in the bowl and mix well.
Drizzle lime juice over the mashed avocados.
Fold in prepared tomato, onion, jalapeño, cilantro and garlic and cumin. Mix gently to combine, ensuring the flavors are evenly distributed without over-mixing.
Taste. Add salt and pepper, to taste and adjust lime juice, if necessary.
Transfer guacamole to a serving bowl and serve immediately with tortilla chips, or use as a topping for tacos, burritos or fajitas.
