Purely Simple Guacamole
- 4 tablespoons white onions, finely chopped
- 3 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped and firmly packed
- 2 teaspoons fresh jalapenos, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 3 medium ripe Hass avocadoes (about 8 oz each)
- 3 tablespoons tomatoes, diced
- Grind 1 TBS finely chopped white onion, 1 firmly packed TBS chopped fresh cilantro, 2 tsp finely chopped jalapeno, and 1 tsp salt in a molcajete until all ingredients are well ground.
- TIP: Alternatively, use a fork to mash ingredients into a paste in a wide bowl.
- (I use a nice sized mortar and pestle.
- ).
- Cut 3 medium-ripe hass avocados (about 8 oz each) in half.
- Twist the halves to separate them and remove the pit with the tip of the knife.
- Place an avocado half, cut side up, in the palm of your hand and make 3 or 4 evenly spaced lengthwise cuts through its flesh down to the skin, without cutting through the skin.
- Make 4 cross-wise cuts in the same fashion.
- Scoop the diced avocado flesh into the molcajete.
- Repeat with remaining avocado halves.
- Gently fold the avocado into the chile-onion paste, keeping the avocado pieces fairly in tact.
- Add 3 TBS diced tomato, 2 firmly packed TBS chopped fresh cilantro, and 1 TBS finely chopped white onion.
- Fold together all the ingredients.
- Taste and add salt, if desired.
- Serve immediately, directly from molcajete (or bowl), with tortilla chips.
