Yield Makes 12 Tacos; Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 5

3 to 4 cups vegetable oil for frying
1 cup (8 ounces) beer
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup flour
3 firm-ripe avocadoes, quartered, pitted, and peeled

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a 4-quart pot or a wok until a deep-fat thermometer registers 360°F.
  • Put the beer in a wide bowl and stir in the salt. Put the flour in another wide bowl.
  • Cut each quarter of avocado into 3 long wedges and dunk the wedges first in the beer, then turn them gently in the flour to coat.
  • Transfer about 6 avocado slices at a time to the oil and fry until a light-golden crust forms, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate to drain. Fry more avocado slices in the same manner until all slices have been fried.
  • Make tacos with 3 slices of avocado and the accompaniments.
