Avocado Fries
I love avocados! They are my favorite color and they taste delicious!
Avocado toast is a bg trend, but I'm not really into that. I love to have a half an avocado filled with cottage cheese and a few almonds on it, bam you have breakfast!
My long time friend Jenny told me she had avocado fries once at a restaurant and she really liked them.
I never got to that restaurant with her but I did find a recipe for some amazing avocado fries that I'm going to share with you today! Along with a couple dipping sauce's.
You can find the original recipe in Dennis the Prescotts cookbook Eat Delicious.
There are a few steps to making this BUT, it is SO worth it!
What you need:
Oil for frying
Avocado Fries:
3 firm avocados
1/4 cup flour
2 eggs, whisked
1 1/2 cups panko bread crumbs
1/4 tsp sea salt
1/2 tsp chili powder
1/8 tsp cumin
1/8 tsp garlic powder
1/8 tsp cayenne powder
Pico:
4 roam tomatoes
2 tablespoons purple onion, diced
1 teaspoon red wine vinager
1 tablespoon fresh basil, chopped
1 tablespoon cilantro
pinch of salt
Cream Sauce:
1/2 cup prepared mayo
1 tablespoon lime juice
1 garlic clove, minced
1/2 tsp chili powder
1/4 tsp paprika
*cilantro & feta cheese for topping
How to make them:
Let's start off with the sauces so you can get them chilling in the fridge.
Pico:
Pretty simple, chop your tomatoes, mix with the juice of a 1/2 a lime, salt, chop your onion, add to bowl. Chop up your basil & cilantro pop into the bowl, add vinegar. Mix and pop into fridge!
Cream sauce:
Take a bowl add in all ingredients, mayo, lime juice, chili powder, paprika and chopped garlic. Combine well, pop into fridge.
Avocado Fries:
Start heating your oil, you can tell when it's ready by sticking the end of a wooden spoon in oil very carefully, do you see bubbles? It's ready. Usually on medium heat but all ovens are different,
While the oil in warming up start to prep.
You need 3 bowls, fill separately 1st bowl flour, the next mixed eggs and lastly panko mixed with the seasonings.
Cut your firm avocados into four slices. Peel the skins off of course.
Ok your ready to start frying, first grab a plate line with a paper towel to drain off all that extra oil.
One slice of avocado at a time dip into flour, egg mix, finally the panko mixture.
Carefully place your avocado slices once battered into oil, frying one minute on each side.
Once finished let them rest for a minute on the paper towel.
Platting, grab a serving dish, place your avocado slices on plate, scatter on plate feta cheese crumbs and cilantro. Pull those cups of sauces out of fridge and set on plate.
Now grub down, they are AMAZING!
