Ingredients
  

  • 3 fresh garlic cloves
  • ½ jalapeno pepper (remove seeds)
  • 1 bunch of cilantro
  • 2 ripe avocados
  • juice from one lime
  • salt to taste
  • pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Make a paste with the garlic cloves and salt.
  • Once you’ve created your garlic paste, add the cilantro and continue to paste. Because you are turning the cilantro into a paste, I recommend using the stems.
  • Add the jalapeno and roughly grind/paste if you don’t want to eat chunks of the chile pepper. Alternatively, you can also finely dice the jalapeno and add without any further grinding.
  • Cut the avocados and remove the flesh directly into the mortar and smash, mixing with the paste.
  • Add the lime juice, pepper, and additional salt to taste.
  • Serve immediately and enjoy!
