Ingredients
  

  • 2 big and ripe avocados
  • 1 tomato, diced finely
  • 1/2 white or yellow onion, diced finely
  • juice of 1-2 limes
  • 2 heaped tablespoons finely chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • drops of hot sauce, to taste (in Colombia often called "salsa de ají picante". Replace with tabasco)

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the avocados
    Halve the avocados, take the pit out and scoop out the flesh with a spoon. Place in a mixing bowl and mash with a fork until smooth
  • Mix together
    Add the rest of the ingredients: diced onion and tomato, chopped cilantro, lime juice, salt and hot sauce. Mix well, taste and adjust seasoning if necessary
  • Serve
    Serve immediately or place in the refrigerator until using. Serve as a dipping sauce during a barbecue, as a side dish, or with plantain chips

Notes

  1. This guacamole tastes best when eaten the same day. You could keep the dip in an airtight container in the refrigerator for an extra day. 
  2. Leave out hot sauce for a non-spicy version.
  3. Replace hot sauce for chili pepper or dried chili flakes if hot sauce is not available to you.
