Ingredients you need per step are listed below the step in Italic

Instructions

Cut the avocados in half lengthwise up to the pit. Twist the halves apart. Remove the pit and scoop the flesh out of the skin with a spoon.
2 avocados
Place the avocado flesh on a deep plate and mash it with a fork.
Squeeze about 2 tablespoons of lime juice and pour it over the avocado. This adds flavor and prevents the guacamole from turning brown.
2 tablespoons lime juice
Add the finely chopped red pepper, shallot, tomato, pressed garlic, and coriander. Mix everything well.
1 shallot, 1 red chili pepper, 1 tomato, ½ clove garlic, ½ oz. fresh coriander
Taste the guacamole and add some extra salt, pepper, or lime juice to taste.

NOTES

1. Serving tip: Serve the guacamole with extra coriander leaves, lime, or a pinch of chili flakes (if you like a bit of spice). It's perfect with tortilla chips, on toast, or as a dip for vegetables.

2. Storage: Guacamole is best when fresh (and ready within 10 minutes anyway).

Do you still want to store it? Then, press a piece of foil directly onto the guacamole so that it does not discolor as quickly. This way, it will be kept in the fridge for another day.
