Guacamole rojo - about this recipe

This is red guacamole, so-called because of the large amount of tomatoes used in it. Because of its coarse texture, it is more suited as an accompaniment than a dip. The recipe has been translated and slightly adapted from Ricardo Muñoz Zurita's book Salsas Mexicanas (ISBN 9702222125)
