Let’s make it.

  1. Prepare the vegetables

    Dice onion and tomato finely. Remove the watery tomato seed pockets to keep the dip from becoming loose.

  2. Open the avocados

    Cut around each avocado, twist apart, and remove the pit with a spoon. Scoop flesh into a bowl. Avoid striking the pit with a knife held toward your hand.

  3. Mash gently

    Add lime juice and salt and mash with a fork, leaving some small pieces for texture.

  4. Fold and serve

    Fold in onion, tomato, and cilantro. Taste and adjust lime or salt. Serve soon; for short storage, press a cover directly onto the surface and refrigerate.

A little kitchen wisdomRipe avocados should yield gently to pressure without feeling hollow or mushy. Lime brightens the flavor but does not stop browning indefinitely.

Make it your own

Leave out tomato for a firmer dip, or add finely minced chili for heat.
