Cut one avocado in half lengthwise. Stick the point of a knife in the pit and pull up to remove the pit completely. Use a spoon to scoop out the flesh of the avocado and put it in a bowl. Repeat with the remaining avocados.
Add the lime juice to the removed avocado flesh. Mash the mixture with the back of a fork.
Stir in the sour cream, oil, cayenne pepper, green onions, and garlic. Season with salt. Mash again with the back of a fork; the mixture should not be perfectly smooth.
Serve immediately or cover with plastic wrap, refrigerate and serve within 2 hours.

Fresh guacamole is easy and quick to make, and tastes better than store bought. Try it not only for chips, but for raw vegetables or as a "sauce" for steak..
