Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 2 ripe avocados
- 1 lime, juiced
- 1 small onion, diced
- 1 tomato, diced
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- Salt to taste
- Fresh cilantro, chopped (optional)
Instructions
- Select ripe avocados that yield slightly to gentle pressure but aren't mushy. Ensure they have a dark green to almost black skin color.
- Cut avocados in half lengthwise. Remove the pit by carefully striking it with a knife blade and twisting it out. Scoop the flesh into a medium mixing bowl using a spoon.
- Immediately squeeze fresh lime juice over the avocado flesh to prevent browning and add bright citrus flavor. Use a fork to mash the avocados to your preferred consistency - chunky or smooth.
- Finely dice the small onion into uniform small pieces. For a milder flavor, rinse the diced onion quickly under cold water to reduce sharp intensity.
- Dice the tomato into small, consistent cubes. Remove seeds if you prefer a less watery guacamole.
- Mince the garlic clove using a sharp knife or garlic press to release its aromatic oils.
- Add diced onion, tomato, and minced garlic to the mashed avocados. Gently fold ingredients together to maintain texture.
- Season with salt to taste. Start with a small amount and adjust gradually.
- If using cilantro, chop fresh leaves finely and sprinkle over the guacamole for added freshness.
- For camping, store in a sealed container with plastic wrap directly touching the surface to prevent browning. Serve immediately with tortilla chips or fresh vegetables.
Tips
- • Choose avocados wisely: Select ripe avocados that are dark green to almost black and yield slightly to gentle pressure. • Prevent browning: Always add lime juice immediately after mashing avocados to keep your guacamole fresh and vibrant. • Prep in advance: Chop all ingredients before your camping trip and store separately to assemble quickly at the campsite. • Keep it cool: Store in a sealed container with plastic wrap directly touching the surface to maintain freshness. • Customize your texture: Mash avocados to your preferred consistency - chunky or smooth. • Optional flavor boost: Rinse diced onions under cold water for a milder taste if you prefer less intensity.
