Notes
- Make sure to add garlic, it adds a mild garlic aroma to the dip. Use just one clove of garlic, don't add too much garlic which may over power the dip.
- I add a bit of coriander stalks along with garlic when mudlling, which blends into the guacamole while making it more fresh.
- Make sure to add some finely cubed avocado in the end which adds contrast texture.
- Always taste and adjust lemon juice to your taste.
- Be generous with the cilantro leaves for fresh taste.
