Making guacamole

Guacamole is mainly comprised of avocados. There are countless variations and methods, but a traditional Mexican guacamole is made in a molcajete (mortar and pestle). You can use a bowl and a big spoon.

Finely chop a Serrano Chile (more if you like it), a small onion, a Roma tomato, and a generous handful of cilantro. Put that in the bowl. Add two or three peeled avocados and mush it all together. Some prefer a slightly more lumpy consistency, some less. If you leave the pits in it will not turn brown. At this point season with salt and lime juice to taste.

Simple guacamole

MASH up 2 cups of FRESH avocados. Mix in juice from one lemon. Salt and pepper to taste.

Simple and traditional

Here's a synthesis of the previous two -- both "authentic" tasting and very quick to make:

Mix together an avocado, half a chopped small red onion, a teaspoon each of chili powder, of garlic powder (chopped fresh garlic is better, but this is the quick version!), salt/pepper, and a splash of lime juice (or lemon juice if you don't have lime). Tastes very different after being refrigerated for a day (less "bright" and more rich/intense -- both are good)

Authentic guacamole

2 large ripe avocados chopped 1 tomato finely chopped 1-4 oz. can green chilies diced 1/4 cup onion finely chopped 2 tbsp. lime juice 1/2 tsp. garlic powder 1/2 tsp. chili powder 1/4 tsp. cumin Combine ingredients in a bowl. Mash mixture until avocados are slightly mashed. Chill. Serve with tortilla chips.

Simpler guacamole

Mash 4 avocados salsa sour cream lime juice and salt just mash together and mix. and serve with tortilla and/or corn chips...

Guacamole consists of avocados, onions, tomatoes, cilantro, salt and lime juice various other ingredients depending on what type you're looking to make. There are plenty of different kinds of guacamole recipes online

Depending on how much you are trying to make you need ripe avocados, fresh onion, cilantro, fresh garlic or garlic powder, salt, pepper, and fresh squeezed lime juice. You can also add jalapeño peppers if you like it spicy. Just peel and smash the avocado, mince chop all other ingredients add a pinch of salt and pepper, lime juice and mix together well. If you like you can add tomato and adjust all the ingredients to your liking, then serve!

Use whatever recipe you choose, but add a few drops of lemon juice before you smash it. Put it in a bowl, and put plastic wrap directly on the surface of the guacamole. Use a lid or another piece of plastic wrap to cover the actual bowl. Keep it in the fridge until you are ready to use serve.
