Guacamole is prepared differently in various regions of Mexico. In
the city of Monterrey, it is garnished to reflect the colors of the
Mexican flag.

For the guacamole:

totopos (crisply fried tortilla wedges)

Put avocadoes in a glass bowl, and mash them with a fork. Add onion,
cilantro, lime juice, zucchini, oil, chiles, and salt. Mix the
ingredients thoroughly to form a puree.

Put the avocado pits in the guacamole to prevent darkening. To serve,
spoon guacamole into a mortar, and decorate with tomato on one side
and green onions, chiles, and cilantro leaves in the center. On the
other side, place the totopos.

Makes 8 servings.
