Ingredients

Scale

3 large avocados (black speckled skin ideal)
1/2 tsp ground cumin
1 tbsp lime juice
1/2 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 cup diced Roma tomatoes (or 1/2 cup diced cucumbers)
1/4 cup finely chopped cilantro (or parsley)
1/4 tsp salt


Instructions

Select avocados with slight softness
Warm the bowl with a towel for smooth texture
Use tongs to add ingredients in order: avocado, lime juice, cumin, onion powder, garlic powder, salt
Dice and fold in tomatoes/cucumbers last
Mash with tines for chunky texture or blend smooth for desired consistency

Notes

Ripe avocados prevent browning and ensure creamy texture
Add sorrel leaves as lime substitute for authentic flavor

Make 1 hour before serving for best flavor melding
Replace chili with roasted red peppers for heat-free options
