Gather @avocado{3}, @serrano chili{1} and @fresh cilantro{3%tbsp}.

Grind the @onion{0.5}, chile, half the cilantro and a good pinch of @salt{} to a rough paste in the molcajete — or mince and mash on a board.

Halve the avocados, pop out the pits and scoop the flesh into the paste.

Crush with the pestle or a fork, leaving real chunks — guacamole is not a purée.

Fold in the @lime{1} juice, the diced @tomato{1} and the rest of the cilantro. Taste and correct the salt and lime.

Serve straight away with warm tortilla chips, or press plastic wrap onto the surface if it must wait.
