To make this Guacamole with Roasted Garlic and Caramelized Onions, you will need the following ingredients:
- 3 ripe avocados
- 1 head of garlic
- 1 large onion
- 1 lime
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
- Salt and pepper to taste
To begin, preheat your oven to 400 degrees F. Cut the top off the head of garlic and drizzle with olive oil. Wrap the garlic in foil and roast in the oven for 30-40 minutes, or until the cloves are soft and golden brown.
While the garlic is roasting, heat a tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are caramelized and golden brown, about 20-25 minutes.
Once the garlic is roasted and the onions are caramelized, it's time to make the guacamole. Cut the avocados in half and remove the pit. Scoop the flesh into a bowl and mash with a fork or potato masher. Squeeze in the juice of one lime and mix well.
Add the roasted garlic, caramelized onions, chopped cilantro, salt, and pepper to the bowl and mix well. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
