I've got 2 ways to make the best guacamole recipe ever. The key is to never add lime juice directly to the homemade guacamole, instead pickle chop red onions with it.
For the simple guacamole recipe, add the diced red onions to a small bowl and squeeze over enough lime juice to cover, allow to marinate 15-30 minutes. This will remove the raw flavor from the onions. Scoop the avocados into a bowl and add the olive oil, ¼ teaspoon salt, and mash until desired consistency, I like it chunky.
Add the cilantro, tomatoes, and much red onion as desired, mix well. Check for seasoning, you may need more salt and/or some reserved lime juice from the onions. If not enjoying right away, press plastic wrap directly on the surface of the guacamole and store in the fridge, or on the counter for no more than 1 hour.
For the fancy guacamole, Add the diced red onions to a small bowl and squeeze over enough lime juice to cover, allow to marinate 15-30 minutes. Char the poblano pepper directly on the stove top burner until blistered and charred all over, about 8-10 minutes.
Place in a zip-top bag for 10 minutes then remove the skin and seeds, you can do this under cold running water. Finely chop and set aside.
Scoop the avocados into a bowl and add the olive oil, ¼ teaspoon salt, and mash until desired consistency. Add the cilantro, some pickled red onions, chopped pepitas, chopped poblano peppers.
Cut the mango into small pieces and sprinkle over a pinch of salt and chile powder, add to the guacamole and mix well. Check for seasoning, you may need more pickling liquid or salt. Serve with tortilla chips, veggies, or watermelon radishes!
