Guacamole with tomato and onion gets a squeeze of lemon juice as soon as you scoop out the flesh, then it’s mashed with a fork and left slightly chunky. Tomato, onion and parsley give this avocado spread a fresh, chunky texture. I stop mashing while you can still see pieces of avocado. Preparation: 15 minutes. Cooking: 0 minutes. Resting: 0 minutes. Total time: 15 minutes. Servings: 4. Approximately 140 kcal and 2 g protein per serving.

Ingredients

  • 2 medium avocados (300 g flesh)
  • 15 ml lemon juice (½ medium lemon)
  • 1 medium tomato (120 g)
  • 1 medium onion (150 g)
  • 5 g parsley
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground chili

Preparation

1. Scoop the flesh of the 2 avocados into a bowl and immediately drizzle with 15 ml lemon juice. Mash with a fork until you have a chunky paste. 2. Finely chop the tomato, onion and parsley. The small pieces mix easily into the avocado. 3. Add the tomato, onion and parsley. Add 1 teaspoon of salt and 1/8 teaspoon ground chili, then mix well. 4. Serve spread on toast or alongside nachos.

Notes

Store the paste in a sealed container in the fridge, with plastic wrap pressed against the surface, for up to 3 days; it may darken a little. Serve it on toast or with nachos. Choose avocados that give slightly when pressed so you can mash them with a fork. If the tomato is very juicy, remove the seeds before chopping it, otherwise the paste will be runny. You can replace the lemon juice with the same amount of lime juice.

Frequently asked questions
