Default Guacamole

Oh how I love this stuff! I make it a few times a week, its so yummy and so easy to make.

2 Avocados (soft ones please!) removed from skin
1 lime wedge worth of juice
1/4 or more of jalapeño minced
2-3 cloves of garlic minced
1/4 of a small onion minced or thicker if you like chunks of onion.
1/2 tsp salt
grind or two of fresh pepper


Place everything into a bowl, if you want to do it the easy home friendly way, use your hands and mush everything up, it feels great between the fingers and gets the job done fast, if you want to be a bit more civilized you can use the bottom of a glass cup or a potato masher both work fine.

Mash everything to the consistency you like and serve fast so it wont turn brown on you, do note, if you use enough lime the browning wont kick in for a very long time.

North Mexico style:
2 Avocadoes (def. soft!) Remove skin and "hueso" (testicle looking thing in the center)
Half lime
1 fresh jalapeno chopped, seeds off if you'd like
1/2 onion, chopped
1/2 tomato chopped
salt to taste
1/4 of the bunch of cilantro chopped fine, no stems

Place the avocadoes in bowl first, add the tomato, onions, cilantro and jalapeno, use a fork to mush everything. Add salt.
Cover the top layer with lime juice to prevent "brownness". Once you have your "carne estrada" ready, stir the guacamole and serve.
