Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 2 medium avocados - seed and skin removed
  • 5 ounces tomatoes - diced
  • 3 ounces red onion - small dice*
  • ½ cup cilantro - leaves and small stems chopped
  • 1 lime juiced - 2 if dry
  • 2 teaspoons ají amarillo paste - optional if you want a little heat!
  • sea salt and fresh ground pepper - to taste

Instructions

  • Lightly mash the avocados.
  • Add the remaining ingredients. Fold gently together with a silicone or rubber spatula.
  • Season with salt and ground pepper to taste.

Notes

* To remove the harsh bite of the red onion, fine dice the onion before soaking it in generously-salted ice water for 15-30 minutes. Rinse thoroughly and pat dry before adding.
