This article will tell you how to make an exquisite guacamole dip.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Two Ripe Avocados
  • Tomatoes
  • Fresh Limes
  • Cilantro
  • Jalapeno Peppers
  • Serrano Peppers
  • Garlic
  • Salt & Pepper
  1. Step 1

    Cut two ripe (to the touch) avocados in half and mash them up with a fork until they aren't chunky. (Unless you like chunky guacamole.)

  2. Step 2

    Squeeze fresh lime juice into a small bowl. Add a very small amount of salt and pepper. The reason for lime and not lemon is that limes will help keep the avocados fresh for a while longer, and it basically takes over the flavor.

  3. Step 3

    Finely chop the cilantro. Cilantro is like a lemony parsley when eaten by itself, and when added to guacamole it complements the lime. Add the cilantro to the lime juice.

  4. Step 4

    Dice the tomatoes (2-3) and add those to the lime juice.

  5. Step 5

    Dice the chilies (Jalapeno and Serrano)

  6. Step 6

    Chop the garlic and add that and the other spices (Salt & Pepper) to the avocado.

  7. Step 7

    Mix the lime juice in slowly, adding every bit of yummy flavor into the avocado.

  8. Step 8

    Serve immediately.
