Classic Guacamole
Recipe by Nikoleta, vegan cook and author of every recipe in the Tofu app · @surovadcerka
Chunky, fresh guacamole made the traditional way - mashed avocado with white onion, tomato, cilantro, and a bright hit of lime juice.
Ingredients
- 440 g avocado
- 25 g onion
- 180 g tomato
- 1 tsp salt
- 2 tbsp lime juice
- 10 g fresh coriander
- 10 g red chili pepper (jalapeño optional)
How to make it
- Finely chop the white onion, cilantro, and chili pepper (if using). If you have a stone mortar (molcajete), grind them together with the salt into a fine paste — this gives the guacamole a more authentic depth of flavour.
- Halve the avocados, remove the stone, and scoop the flesh into a bowl with a spoon. Mash roughly with a fork, leaving small chunks of avocado throughout.
- Add the onion, cilantro, and chili to the avocado and fold in gently.
- Deseed the tomato, dice it into small cubes, and stir into the mixture.
- Add the lime juice, season with salt, and mix everything gently. Taste and adjust with more salt or lime juice as needed. Serve immediately. If not serving right away, press cling film directly onto the surface of the guacamole so it touches the entire top — this prevents air contact and stops it from browning.
