Number Of Ingredients 11

6 flour tortillas (any size will do, 11-inch are recommended)
Cookie cutter, of your choice
2 ripe avocados, chopped (by hand)
1/2 cup diced red onion
2 teaspoons chopped cilantro
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
1 plum tomato, seeded and chopped
1/2 cup fresh sour cream
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 pound fresh lobster meat, cut in small medallions

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 300 degrees F.
  • To make the "flower" tortillas, take the cookie cutter and press firmly down on the tortilla. Bake on a cookie sheet for 10 to 12 minutes. Reserve in an airtight container.
  • For the guacamole, combine the first 5 ingredients. Cover tightly with saran wrap. The guacamole may be made several hours ahead and refrigerated.
  • In small bowl, blend together the sour cream and spices.
  • To serve, place the cut out tortillas on a tray. Put a dollop of guacamole on each tortilla. Place 1 piece of lobster on top of the guacamole. Garnish with the spicy sour cream, using a squeeze bottle to drizzle the mixture over the hors d'ouevres. Serve cold.
