Ingredients
  

  • 2 medium size ripe avocados
  • 1 1/2 tablespoon fresh finely minced onion
  • 1 medium size fresh jalapeno finely minced
  • 1/2 habanero finely minced
  • 1/2 tablespoon minced garlic
  • 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions
 

  • Remove the pit from the avocado and remove the avocado fruit from the skin into a medium-sized bowl.
  • Add the rest of the ingredients and mash with a fork until desired consistency.
  • Store the guacamole in an airtight bowl in the refrigerator.

Notes

The salt and lemon juice are important ingredients in the guacamole. It helps stop the oxidation and preserve the avocados. You can use lime juice instead of lemon juice and you can substitute serrano peppers for jalapenos.
