The BEST Guacamole Recipe
An Original Recipe by Lorraine Elliott
Preparation time: 8 minutes (20 minutes steeping)
Cooking time: 0 minutes
Serves: 2-3 people with chips as a snack
- 50g/1.7ozs red onion, finely diced
- 30ml/1floz lime juice
- 1 teaspoon/5g fine salt
- 3 medium avocadoes, ripe
- 1-2 jalapeno chillies
- Coriander to taste
- 1 teaspoon Tajin seasoning
- Salt and pepper
Step 1 - In a medium sized bowl mix the onion with the lime juice and salt and allow to sit on the counter for 20 minutes. Blend or finely chop the jalapenos, coriander and Tajin together until finely textured.
Step 2 -Slice open the avocadoes and remove the flesh with a tablespoon into a bowl. You want at around 320g/11ozs of avocado flesh. Mash with a fork making it as chunky or smooth as you like. Stir the onion and the marinating juices and the jalapeno and coriander mixture and mix well. Season with pepper to taste (you won't need salt as you've already added it). Cover the guacamole directly on the surface with clingfilm to avoid it browning and keep it in the fridge until serving.
