- 1 1/2 tsp kosher salt
- 1 cup pomegranate seeds
Let's Cook
-
Step 1.
Cut 8 medium ripe avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a medium bowl. For easier mashing, you can scoop the flesh out with your hands as Maisie does.
-
Step 2.
Add 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice and 1½ teaspoons kosher salt to the bowl with the avocado. Mash everything together with a fork or potato masher until the guacamole reaches your desired consistency—some prefer it chunky, others smooth.
-
Step 3.
Taste the guacamole and adjust seasoning with additional lime juice and salt as needed. Gently fold in 1 cup pomegranate seeds (from 1 large pomegranate) until evenly distributed.
-
Step 4.
Serve immediately, or press a piece of plastic wrap directly onto the surface of the guacamole to prevent browning, then refrigerate for up to 24 hours. Stir before serving if chilled.
