Ingredients

  • 2-3 medium-sized ripe avocados
  • cup cup finely chopped walnuts
  • 1 tablespoon ghee
  • 1 cup finely chopped cremini mushrooms or preferred mushrooms
  • Sea salt, to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • pinch pinch of hing asafoetida
  • teaspoons teaspoons truffle oil
  • A generous handful of fresh cilantro leaves and tender stems
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped chives
  • Juice of 1-2 limes as needed
  • Fresh vegetable crudité or sattvic crispbreads for serving optional, not included in the recipe

Instructions

  • Begin by selecting high-quality, ripe avocados. Aim to have 2-3 medium-sized avocados, ensuring they yield slightly to gentle pressure without feeling mushy.
  • Slice the avocados in half lengthwise, and with caution, remove the pits by gently tapping the sharp edge of a knife into the pit and then twisting to dislodge.
  • Scoop out the avocado flesh with a spoon and place it into a medium-sized mixing bowl. Mash it with a fork until it reaches a creamy yet slightly chunky consistency, based on your preference.
  • In a dry skillet over medium-high heat, toast ¼ cup of finely chopped walnuts until they release a nutty aroma and turn lightly golden, stirring frequently to prevent burning. Remove from the pan and set aside to cool.
  • Using the same skillet, lower the heat to medium and add 1 tablespoon of ghee. Swirl to coat the pan.
  • Add 1 cup of finely chopped cremini or other preferred mushrooms, and sauté until the mushrooms release their moisture and start to brown, approximately 5-7 minutes.
  • Season the mushrooms with sea salt, freshly ground black pepper, and a pinch of hing (asafoetida), stirring to combine the flavors.
  • Finish the mushrooms by adding 1-2 teaspoons of truffle oil, just enough to impart a subtle truffle essence without overwhelming the other ingredients. Stir well and remove from heat to cool slightly.
  • Chop a generous handful of fresh cilantro leaves and tender stems and 1 tablespoon of chives finely.
  • Gently fold the toasted walnuts, sautéed truffle mushrooms, cilantro, and chives into the mashed avocado mixture, keeping a light hand to maintain texture.
  • Squeeze the juice of 1-2 limes, to taste, into the guacamole, ensuring you strain out any seeds. The lime juice adds brightness and will help prevent the avocado from oxidizing too quickly.
  • Taste and adjust the seasoning with additional sea salt, black pepper, lime juice, or truffle oil, according to your palate.
  • For presentation, transfer the guacamole into a clean serving bowl and garnish with a few cilantro leaves and a drizzle of truffle oil.
  • Serve immediately with an assortment of fresh vegetable crudité or sattvic crispbreads such as spelt or ancient grain varieties.
