Guacamole
2 ripe avocados
3 serrano chilies with seeds or 1 fresh jalapeno chili with seeds, minced
1/4 C finely minced onion
1/8 tsp coarse salt, or to taste
Black pepper to taste
1/2 TBS. finely minced garlic
1 tomato, chopped into pieces
Dash lime juice (or to taste)
Halve and pit avocados, saving the pits. Scoop the avocado flesh into a bowl, discarding peel, and mash together with the chilies, onion, black pepper, garlic and tomatoes. The mixture should be chunky. Season with the salt and lime juice. Stick the avocado pits in the mixture; this will keep the guacamole from turning brown while serving. Pits can be discarded after when guacamole is finished.
Note: When working with the jalapeno chili, wear rubber gloves to prevent burning; do not touch eyes.
