Guacamole
June 9, 2011 § 7 Comments
I always pay $2.25 extra to get guacamole in my burrito bowl at Chipotle. I love it.
I had a movie night the other day and decided to make guacamole as a movie-snack with some ingredients I had on-hand. The previous night, I had bought a Trader Joe’s guacamole-kit (2 avocados, 1 lime, 1 jalapeno, 1 tomato, 1 onion, 3 cloves of garlic) and brought it over to my friend’s house for a late-night study snack, but it turned out to be more of an avocado ceviche instead of a guacamole since the avocados weren’t ripe and didn’t mush properly. (Sorry again akim!)
Notes:
1. Please make sure avocado is ripe…
2. You can of course add, (deep breath) cilantro… if you want, but I think it tastes fine without.
3. Please adjust salt according to your taste and how salty the chips are. If your chips are super salty, your guac should be a little less salty.
Guacamole Recipe
2 ripe avocados, chopped roughly
1 juice of a lime, fresh
4 cloves of garlic, minced finely
1 onion, minced finely
1 tomato, chopped finely
2 jalapenos minced finely (add the seeds if you want it to be spicy)
1 tablespoon sriracha
1/2-3/4 teaspoon salt
Mix all ingredients together in a bowl and mash with a potato masher or fork. Enjoy with your favorite chips!
my golden hour 
why dont you like cilantro lol?
if only I knew…
i really wish I LOVED it, but I simply can’t get myself to like it every time i try… 😦
put the avocado in a paper bag with an apple and it’ll ripen faster. or zap it in the microwave, that works too depending on how unripen the avocado is…
haha my friend and i actually did the microwave trick, keeping our fingers crossed the entire time, but the avocado was very unripe… 😦
try adding wasabi!
OooO what a great tip! thanks jasmine!
hahaha awww soohee thanks again for bringing that study break snack!! the guac “ceviche” was still super delish!! ❤
