  • salt and pepper

Notes

Guacamole is very much about seasoning to taste.  When you're only  making one serving it's important not to over season or you'll ruin it quickly. A sprinkle is all you need. Start with just a dash of salt and pepper and give it a taste. If it needs a little more, sprinkle a little more in.
For a little extra heat you can add in a sprinkle of chili pepper flakes. For added texture or a little colour add a tbsp of diced red bell pepper.
