Turns out, authentic guacamole doesn’t have garlic. This is when Mark educated me on what goes into a proper guacamole (you should memorize this)- avocados, lemon juice, red onion, a tomato, salt, pepper and two ingredients The Barefoot Contessa doesn’t have in her recipe but which Mark considers essential…. cilantro and a whole jalapeño.
That’s really all there is to it. Mash with a fork (or, if you have a large marble mortar and pestle like I do now, it’s great in there too), taste for lemon juice and salt and serve.
