03 Method

Step 1

With a spoon, scoop the avocado flesh into a medium-sized mixing bowl. Add the lime juice, garlic and salt. Mash the ingredients together with a large fork or potato masher until the avocado is nice and creamy.
Step 2

To ensure that the onion flavor doesn’t overpower the guacamole, rinse the chopped onion under running water (I used a fine mesh colander). Pat the onion dry with a paper towel.
Step 3

Add the onion, chopped cilantro and jalapeno to the bowl and mix well. Gently stir in 1/2 of the pomegranate arils. For extra presentation points, transfer the guacamole to an appropriately sized serving bowl now.
Step 4

Sprinkle remaining pomegranate arils over guacamole, along with some additional chopped cilantro and totally optional feta, if you’d like. Serve immediately.
