Description
My favorite perfect guacamole! The addition of corn + hot sauce makes this guacamole simply perfect. This guacamole makes enough to serve at a party or to enjoy as an appetizer with family/friends. It keeps well for a couple days in the fridge if you seal it very well with plastic wrap. Eat with tortilla chips or smother on a sandwich!
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 avocados
- 1/3 – 1/2 cup chopped cilantro (lightly packed)
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1/2 heaping cup red onion, chopped (1 small red onion)
- 2 roma tomatoes, chopped
- 1 jalapeno pepper, chopped* (optional)
- 1 cup corn
- 1 1/2 limes, juiced
- 2 – 3 drops hot sauce
- 3/4 tsp sea salt
Instructions
- Mash the avocado with a fork (or blend 1 or 2 pulses with an immersion/stick blender to get the guacamole really creamy) in a medium size bowl.
- Add the chopped cilantro (start with 1/3 cup if you are not a huge cilantro fan), minced garlic, red onion, tomatoes and jalapeno pepper to the mashed avocado. Stir. Add the corn. Stir everything together.
- Add the fresh lime juice, hot sauce and sea salt. Stir. Taste the guacamole if the amount of sea salt and hot sauce is to your taste. I like 3 drops of the hot sauce. Serve with tortilla chips. Enjoy!
Notes
1) Use defrosted, fresh or canned corn.
2) Take the seeds OUT of the jalapeno if you are not a fan of spicy food. Leave out the jalapeno altogether if you are sensitive to spicy food.
3) Adjust cilantro to taste.
