Grilled Red Onion Guacamole

"This is guacamole with a difference. It comes from Dean Fearing of Mansion on Turtle Creek in Dallas, Texas. The important part which you must promise not to take any short cuts over, is the marinading of the onion first. Also, the toasting and grinding of the cumin seed from scratch is like night and day in this recipe. The prep time includes the marinading. Other than that it's as fast as normal guacamole."
