THE BEST GUACAMOLE

Steps:

• Put the diced onion into a small strainer and rinse under cold running water. Transfer to a small bowl and cover with 1 cup cold water. Stir in the vinegar and let sit for 10 minutes.
• Slice the avocados in half, remove the pits and scoop the flesh into a medium bowl. Pour the lime juice over the avocado. Using a fork or potato masher, mash the avocado until creamy with some chunks remaining. Drain the onions well and add to the bowl, along with the jalapeno, garlic, salt and cilantro. Stir to combine.
• Serve immediately with tortilla chips. Or press a piece of plastic wrap directly against the surface of the guacamole to prevent discoloration and refrigerate until ready to serve.

PERFECT GUACAMOLE

Steps:

• Pile the onion, serranos, cilantro and a big pinch of kosher salt on a cutting board. Chop, then mash into a paste with the flat side of a large knife. Transfer to a medium bowl, add the avocados and mash with a wooden spoon until combined but still chunky. Stir in the tomato and season with salt. Garnish with more tomato, cilantro and onion.

CLASSIC GUACAMOLE

Steps:

• Finely chop the red onion, tomatoes, coriander and jalapeños separately. Mix together the onion, tomatoes, coriander and a pinch of salt. Keep the jalapeños to one side.
• Scoop all the avocado flesh into a bowl and crush with a fork, leaving it chunky - it should not be puréed. Add the lime juice and onion mixture, combining gently.
• Add jalapeños, to taste, and more sea salt if needed. Serve with the tortilla chips.
