Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 2 ripe medium avocados
  • 2-3 green chiles (Anaheim, Pueblo or Hatch)
  • 1-2 jalapeños (optional, see notes)
  • ¼ slice of a white onion
  • 2 tablespoons cilantro, diced
  • 1 lime
  • ¼ teaspoon Kosher salt, plus more to taste

Instructions
 

  • Begin by roasting and peeling 2-3 green chiles as described in this blog post.
  • Roast the slice of onion on a comal (flat griddle) until charred (but not burned) all the way around.
  • Dice the onion, green chiles, and cilantro.
  • In a medium bowl, mash the avocados with the back of a fork or a masher until it reaches your desired consistency.
  • Add in the onion, chiles, and cilantro.
  • Add the juice of a lime and mix together until everything is incorporated with the mashed avocado.
  • Allow each person to salt their own serving of guacamole (salting it will speed up the browning process).
  • Serve immediately.
  • To store, transfer any leftover guacamole into an air-tight container. Then, press a piece of plastic wrap right on top of the guacamole. Cover with the lid and store in the refrigerator for one day.

Notes

  • For a spicier guacamole, roast one or two jalapeños, dice them up and add to the guacamole along with the green chiles.
  • For a much milder guacamole, add less green chiles than what the recipe calls for. Another option is to use a spoon to scoop out the veins and seeds from the inside of the chiles, where most of the heat is found.
  • Do not use too much onion or else the guacamole will turn out sweet.
  • Do not burn the onion or it will taste bitter.
