Daisy's Guacamole
















Recipe from Daisy Martinez

Makes about 2 cups, enough for 8 or so as a dip.
(You can omit the garlic if you like)

4 to 5 small Haas avocados
Juice of half a lime
1 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1 plum tomato, cored, seeded, and chopped
1 small Spanish onion, chopped fine
1 jalapeno, cored, seeded and chopped fine
2 cloves garlic, chopped fine
Freshly ground black pepper
Fine sea or kosher salt



Pit and peel the avocados. Cut the avocado in to rough chunks and toss it in a bowl with the lime juice. Add the cilantro, tomato, onion, jalapeno, and garlic and mash-mix with a fork until everything is evenly distributed and the guac has a nice, chunky texture. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve right away, preferably, but if you are making it ahead of time, refrigerate, with a piece of plastic pressed directly to the surface to prevent discoloration, up to 4 hours.
