Ingredients
3 ripe, Fresh California Avocados, seeded and peeled 1/2 tsp. kosher salt 1 medium sweet pink grapefruit, halved 1/2 medium jalapeño, seeded and diced 1 small yellow onion, peeled and diced 1/2 tsp. cumin (comino) 1 Tbsp. chopped cilantro leavesInstructions
- Place the avocado in a bowl and sprinkle with kosher salt.
- Squeeze the juice from one grapefruit half over the avocado.
- Mash the avocado and grapefruit juice, until chunky-smooth (or to your textural preference). Set aside.
- Remove the meat from both halves of the grapefruit in whichever way is easiest for you. I prefer to cut them into quarters and cut the meat out of each quarter and then chop it.
- Cut the grapefruit meat with a small knife and add it to the avocado mixture
- Add the jalapeño and onion to the avocado mixture.
- Top with cumin and cilantro and mix.
- Serve.
Note: Make sure the grapefruit is sweet, and this guacamole will wow your friends and family with its unexpected flavor.
