Fresh Guacamole

Ingredients:

2 ripe avocados
1/2 red onion, minced (about 1/2 cup)
1-2 serrano chiles, stems and seeds removed, minced
1 tablespoon of fresh lime or lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon coarse salt
Dash of freshly grated black pepper
1/2 ripe tomato, seeds and pulp removed, chopped

Instructions:

1 Cut avocados in half, then scoop out the avocado and put into a mixing bowl.

2 Using a fork, mash the avocado. Add the chopped onion, cilantro, lime or lemon, salt and pepper and mash some more. Add small amount of chili to taste.

3 Cover with plastic wrap directly on the surface of the guacamole to prevent oxidation from the air reaching it. Refrigerate until ready.

4 Just before serving, add the chopped tomato to the guacamole and mix.


Serve with tortilla chips, along with salsa and sour cream.
