Author Notes
This recipe is based on a version of guacamole I was once served at a Middle Eastern restaurant. It's become a staple ever since. —ATG117

Ingredients
-
2
avocados
-
2
eggs, hard boiled
-
2
scallions, thinly sliced
-
lemon juice
-
1 large
garlic clove, finely mashed with salt
-
kosher salt
-
freshly ground black pepper
Directions
-
Scoop out the flesh of the avocado and give it a rough mash. (I like some chunkiness, but if you don't feel free to make it smooth.) Coat with lemon juice and sprinkle generously with salt.
-
Separate the egg yolks from the whites. Give the yolks a rough mash, season with salt, and add them to the avocado mixture.
-
To the avocado mixture, also add the finely mashed garlic. Stir to distribute.
-
Now, slice the egg whites once horizontally and the vertically, so you get small slices. Season with salt and gently stir them into the avocado mixture.
-
Add the sliced scallions, and if you'd like, a few grinds of fresh black pepper. Gently stir the mixture. Taste and adjust for lemon juice and salt.
