Time 1h35m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

Three 8-ounce avocados, halved and pitted
Fine salt
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
2 tablespoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon Asian chili garlic paste
Vegetable or canola oil, for frying (about 8 cups)
1 cup seltzer
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 large egg
1/4 cup loosely packed fresh cilantro leaves, for garnish
1 tablespoon Asian fish sauce

Steps:

  • Special equipment: a deep-fry thermometer
  • Line a small rimmed baking sheet with parchment. Score the flesh of each avocado half to the skin with 2 lengthwise and 3 crosswise cuts, to make 12 chunks per half. Ease the chunks out of the skins with a large spoon, and spread them in an even layer on the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt, and freeze for 1 hour.
  • Meanwhile, make the dipping sauce: Whisk together the lime juice, sugar, fish sauce and chili garlic paste in a small bowl until the sugar is dissolved; set aside.
  • Fill a large, heavy-bottomed pot or a Dutch oven with about 1 1/2 inches of oil. Attach a deep-fry thermometer, and bring to 360 degrees F over medium heat.
  • Whisk together the seltzer, flour, egg and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl until smooth. Submerge half the avocado chunks in the batter. Scoop them out with a slotted spoon, letting excess batter drip back into the bowl, and add them to the hot oil, being careful not to splash. Fry the avocado chunks, turning frequently, until deeply golden brown, about 4 minutes. Transfer them to a paper towel-lined plate, and sprinkle right away with some salt. Bring the oil temperature back up to 360 degrees F. Repeat with the remaining avocado chunks. Transfer all the chunks to a serving plate, and garnish with cilantro leaves. Serve immediately with the dipping sauce.

AVOCADO FRIES

If you're trying to get the kiddos to eat "green things," give this recipe a try. I coat sliced avocado in ranch seasoning mix, followed by panko breadcrumbs for crunch, and then bake them up. I serve them with a creamy cilantro-lime sauce for dipping.

Time 45m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 cup all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons (two 0.4-ounce packages) ranch dressing mix
2 large eggs
1 cup panko breadcrumbs
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 large ripe, firm avocados (about 8 ounces each)
Nonstick cooking spray, for the fries
One 8-ounce carton sour cream
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon lime zest plus 1 tablespoon lime juice
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Combine the flour and ranch mix in a shallow dish. Whisk the eggs in another shallow dish. Stir together the panko, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a third shallow dish.
  • Cut the avocados in half and remove the pits. Cut each half in half again and remove the peel. Cut the quarters into thirds. (Each avocado will have 12 slices.)
  • Working one at a time, dredge the avocado slices in the flour mixture, followed by the eggs and then the panko. Place on the prepared baking sheet. Coat the avocado slices with cooking spray and bake, turning halfway through and coating with more cooking spray, until golden brown, 16 to 18 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, stir together the sour cream, mayonnaise, garlic powder, lime zest, lime juice and cilantro in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Serve the sauce with the avocado fries.
