Naked Guacamole

Recipe #301212 | 8 min | 8 min prep | SERVES 4 (Change Servings)

RECIPE BY: cookiedog

We love avocados in my family. This is called naked guacamole because the flavor of the avocado itself is hilighted along with a bit of crunch from the onion, tomato, salt, lime and cilantro. The texture should be chunky- please don't use a blender or processor. Although it may be tempting to add other things- simple is best (oh ok. . . add some garlic if you like ) From Cooking from the Edge.

Ingredients

  • 2 perfectly ripe Hass avocado
  • 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt (to taste)
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons freshly squeezed lime juice
  • 1 ripe roma tomato, seeded and finely chopped or 6-8 sweet cherry tomato, seeded and finely chopped
  • 1/4 of a white onion, finely chopped
  • 12 large fresh cilantro stem, stemmed and roughly chopped
  • Directions

    1. 1
      Remove the seed and peel from the avocados and place in a bowl or molcajete.
    2. 2
      Sprinkle with the salt and lime juice and crush with a fork, potato masher, or tejolote. When the consistency is that of a chunky puree, stir in the tomato, onion, and cilantro.
    3. 3
      Taste for seasoning. If the guacamole is to be eaten with tostadas as a snack, it should be more highly seasoned. Served alongside carnitas or carne asada, a little less seasoned so that it balances the other flavors.
