Equipment
Ingredients
- 2 medium-sized avocados about 1lb (including pit/skin)
- 6 ounces shelled edamame about 1 cup
- 3-4 tablespoons lime juice
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 jalapeno optional
- ¼ cup cilantro
- ½ red onion roughly chopped, about 5 ounces
- 2-3 garlic cloves
- 1 teaspoon salt less/more to taste
Instructions
- Bring a small pot of water to a boil. Add edamame and cook until tender. Rinse with cold water and set aside.
- In the bowl of a food processor, combine edamame and flesh of one avocado. Blend until edamame is finely chopped. Don't worry, it's normal for it to appear a bit gritty or grainy.
- To the processor, add the remaining ingredients and pulse until a chunky but somewhat smooth texture is achieved. Taste test to see if you prefer more acidity (lime/lemon juice) or salt and adjust as desired.
- Serve immediately and enjoy, or store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
