Preparation

Step 1

Using a fork, mash the avocado with the lime juice in a small bowl.

Add the cilantro, onion, tomato, garlic, chiles, salt, pepper and hot sauce (if using).

Stir to combine.

For a super-creamy guacamole, add the mayonnaise.

You may wish to add lemon juice to further reduce the change of discoloration.
