About the dish
Guacamole is a dip of ripe avocado whose name comes from Nahuatl and means roughly “avocado sauce”. Avocados have been grown in Mexico for thousands of years, and the country is still the world's largest producer. In the classic version the fruit is crushed in a stone mortar (molcajete) with a little salt, white onion, hot serrano chilli and coriander, then finished with lime juice and diced tomato. Good guacamole is chunky, fresh and gently hot. It is eaten with crisp pieces of tortilla (totopos), alongside tacos, grilled meat and beans, or simply by the spoonful.
