      Title: Guacamole
 Categories: Vegetables, Fruits, Herbs, Chilies
      Yield: 2 Servings

      3 tb Onion; chopped
    1/2 ts Serrano chile; or more,
           - minced
  1 1/2 ts Cilantro; fine chopped
           Salt
      1 sm Vine-ripened tomato
      1    Ripe Hass avocado
           Tortilla chips; to serve

  In a medium-size bowl, mortar or a Mexican molcajete (lava stone
  mortar), thoroughly mash 1 tb of the onion with the chile, 1/2 ts
  cilantro and 1/2 ts salt to make a paste.

  Cut the tomato in half horizontally, squeeze out the juice and
  seeds and discard. Chop pulp, and add it to the bowl.

  Cut the avocado in half lengthwise, cutting around the pit. Gently
  twist the top half of the avocado off to separate the halves and
  remove the pit. Slice the avocado flesh of both halves lengthwise,
  then crosswise, cutting down to the skin, to form a grid. Scoop the
  avocado into the bowl with a spoon.

  Add the remaining onion and cilantro, and gently fold all the
  ingredients together. Season with more chile and salt if desired.
  Serve at once with tortilla chips.
