Description:

Guacamole is an avocado-based dip which originated in Mexico. Guacamole was originally made by the Aztecs by mashing ripe avocados with a molcajete (mortar and pestle) and adding tomatoes and salt. After the arrival of the Spanish conquistadors, guacamole became popular in Spain.

Preparation:

Mash together all ingredients in a bowl with a fork until smooth, using enough water for desired consistency.

Notes:

Guacamole can be made 1 hour ahead and chilled for best flavor. Its surface should be covered with plastic wrap.
