Ingredients:

2 avocados
400g
1 tomato
130g
1/2 red onion
54g
1/2 cup coriander leaves
8g
1 tbsp lime juice
16g
1 tbsp olive oil
14g

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Avocados:
1. Cut the avocados in half and remove the pits.
2. Scoop the flesh into a medium-sized mixing bowl.
3. Mash the avocado with a fork until you achieve your desired consistency (chunky or smooth).
2. Dice the Tomato:
1. Wash the tomato thoroughly.
2. Remove the seeds and dice it into small pieces.
3. Add the diced tomato to the bowl with the mashed avocados.
3. Chop the Red Onion:
1. Peel and finely chop the red onion.
2. Add the chopped onion to the bowl.
4. Prepare the Coriander:
1. Rinse the coriander leaves under cold water and pat them dry with a paper towel.
2. Chop the coriander leaves finely.
3. Mix the chopped coriander into the bowl with the other ingredients.
5. Add Lime Juice and Olive Oil:
1. Squeeze the juice of half a lime (adjust according to your taste) and pour it over the guacamole mixture.
2. Drizzle 1 tablespoon of olive oil over the mixture.
6. Mix Everything Together:
1. Gently fold all ingredients together until well combined.
2. Taste your guacamole and add salt and pepper if needed (optional).
7. Serve:
1. Transfer the guacamole to a serving bowl.
2. Serve immediately with tortilla chips, pita bread, or your favorite dipping snack.
8. Store (if needed):
- If you need to store the guacamole, cover it tightly with plastic wrap, making sure the wrap is in contact with the surface of the guacamole to prevent browning.
- Store in the refrigerator for up to 1 day.

Tips:

- Choose ripe avocados for a creamy texture and the best flavor. A ripe avocado will give slightly when squeezed.

- To add smokiness, consider roasting the tomato and red onion before mixing them with the avocado.

- For a spicier kick, add finely chopped jalapeños or a sprinkle of smoked paprika.

- Ensure even mixing by mashing the avocados first before adding the other ingredients.

- Adjust the lime juice to your taste. It adds brightness and helps prevent the avocados from browning.

- Serve immediately or store in an airtight container with plastic wrap pressed directly onto the surface of the guacamole to minimize oxidation.

Smoky guacamole is a delectable twist on a classic favorite, offering a perfectly balanced blend of creaminess, freshness, and a touch of smokiness. By following these tips, you can create a crowd-pleasing dip that will leave everyone coming back for more. Enjoy your homemade smoky guacamole with tortilla chips, as a spread, or with your favorite dishes!
