Guacamole

I fucking love guac. Molly and I tried it tonight on our black bean tacos, and damn does it add depth and creaminess. Delicious.


Ingredients

1 avocado, diced
1/2 small red onion, minced
1 roma tomato, minced
1 clove garlic, smashed and minced
1 1/2 tsp lime juice
1/2 jalapeno, minced
1/2 tsp dried cilantro, or 1 tsp fresh
1/2 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp paprika, or 1/4 tsp cayenne
1/4 tsp salt


Directions

Mix it all together in a bowl, and let it sit at room temperature for thirty minutes (if you have the patience) so the flavors can meld. I like to leave the avocado fairly chunky, but some people prefer a puree. The spices, too, are up to you: I like the flavor, but sometimes it's nice to let the avocado shine on its own.
