Calories 177kcal
Ingredients
- 1 piece ripe avocado
- 1/4 lime juiced
- 6 pieces grape tomatoes deseeded and quartered
- 1/2 small red onion diced
- 1 sprig cilantro chopped
- 1 clove garlic
- pinch of salt and black pepper
Instructions
- Cut lengthwise around the avocado. Gently twist the two halves in opposite directions. Remove the pit and the flesh.
- Place the avocado in a bowl and mash with a fork in smaller chunks. Add the lime juice. Add the diced red onions and chopped cilantro. Season with salt and pepper.
- Cut the grape tomatoes into quarters and remove the seeds. (Set aside a small amount of tomato quarters.) Add to the avocado mash. Combine well.
- Transfer the guacamole to serving bowls. Garnish with the leftover tomato and cilantro.
Notes
- A ripe avocado should be slightly soft but not mushy. Test it by flicking off the stem; if the flesh underneath is green, it's good to go.
- Mash the avocado with a fork for the best, chunky texture.
- Deseed your grape tomatoes; stray seeds can water down your guacamole.
