Authentic guacamole with Sicilian Hass avocado

Ingredients for 4 people: 3 ripe Hass avocados, 1 lime, ½ red onion, 1 beefsteak tomato, 1 fresh chili pepper, fresh cilantro as needed, salt as needed.

Method: Cut the avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop out the flesh with a spoon. Mash it in a bowl with a fork — it should not become smooth cream; it should remain rustic. Add the lime juice, finely chopped onion, the seeded tomato cut into small cubes, and the chopped seeded chili pepper. Mix gently and season with salt. Let it rest for 10 minutes before serving, covered with plastic wrap pressed directly onto the surface to prevent oxidation. Serve with toasted bread or nachos.

Recommended variety: Hass — for its creaminess and buttery flavor.
