Guacamole
- 4 ripe avocados
- 3 tomatoes
- 1 lime, zested
- 2 limes, juiced
- 1/2 bunch of cilantro, washed and dried
- 1 red onion, finely chopped
- 2 green onions, diced
- 1 serrano chiles, finely diced
- 2 cloves of roasted garlic
- Salt
- 1. See how to properly slice and pit an avocado.
- 2. Grill the avocado slices for five minutes.
- 3. Scoop the flesh into a large bowl and mash.
- 4. Slice the bottom off each tomato using a serrated knife.
- 5. Using the same knife, make "C" cuts to the tomato. The key here is to cut off the flesh and to avoid the seed membrane.
- 6. Dice the tomato slices. The remaining tomato ball is perfect for soup stock!
- 7. Toss a handful of garlic cloves with olive oil and roast them for about 20 minutes or until your kitchen smells like you want to eat it.
- 8. Mince the garlic and add it to the avocados.
- 9. Finely chop the red onion and green onions.
- 10. Remove the cilantro leaves by holding the bunch with one hand and "peeling" off the leaves with a knife away from you.
- 11. Don't worry if you get some stems. Finely chop the leaves.
- 12. Finely chop the serrano chile. Wear latex gloves if you are sensitive to the oils. Seed first if you want less heat.
- 13. Add the above ingredients to the avocados.
- 14. Zest one of the limes. Add the zest and the lime juice to the mixture. Juice the second lime and add it.
- 15. Mix enough to coat all of the ingredients with the mashed avocado. Salt to taste.
- 16. Reserve some for yourself because once your friends and family get a hold of it, they will eat it all! Trust me.
