Take a avacado and cut in two halves. Remove the pit and scoop out the flesh of the avocado with a spoon.
With a folk, mash the scooped flesh of the avacado. Use the folk so that there are still small chunks of it.

Tips on How to Make Perfect Guacamole
- I can’t stress enough on perfectly ripe avocado.
- Do not over mash or purée, you need to leave small chunks of avocado.
- To spice it right, you can serve it as it is but adding Serrano chilies or jalapeños is a great taste booster.
- Some people use garlic but in my version I skip it completely because you do not want too many overpowering flavors in this dish. Skip it if you want your guac to taste like chipotle.
- Lime to avocado ratio is important. 1tablespoon lime juice per avocado is best to add acidity and balance the sweetness. But you can always adjust as per your taste.
