Steps:
- Using a fork (for good control), beat eggs with 1 teaspoon water until yolks and whites are completely combined and no streaks remain. The water helps incorporate them and steams while the omelet cooks, which puffs it up. Season with 1/8 teaspoon kosher salt and a few cracks of pepper.
- Heat butter in an 8-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high until foaming; swirl to coat. When foam subsides, pour eggs into center of skillet. Let stand 10 seconds. Stir eggs with a rubber spatula in a circular motion with one hand while shaking skillet with the other, about 15 seconds. Reduce heat to medium. Working your way around skillet, gather outer set eggs toward center, then tip skillet so runny eggs move to outside edges, about 1 minute. Lightly spread any remaining runny eggs evenly over top and cook until creamy but no longer wet.
- Lightly press 6 thin slices of avocado into far side of omelet (this prevents them from sliding around), and add 1 tablespoon each chunky red salsa and chopped fresh cilantro leaves before folding. Remove from heat. Tip pan away from you; gently slide spatula under near side of omelet and fold up and over avocado, cilantro and salsa. Slide onto a warm plate. Top with additional chopped cilantro leaves, if desired, and serve.

Steps:
- Bring sugar and water to a boil in a small saucepan, stirring until sugar has dissolved. Remove from heat and add cilantro. Let steep 15 minutes. Pour through a fine sieve set over a bowl; discard solids. Refrigerate syrup until cold, about 15 minutes.
- Puree avocados, cilantro syrup, and lime juice in a blender until smooth. Transfer mixture to a bowl and stir in milk. Cover and refrigerate until cold, at least 1 hour and up to 2 hours.
- Chill a loaf pan in freezer at least 10 minutes. Freeze and churn avocado mixture in an ice cream maker according to manufacturer's directions, then transfer to pan. Cover with plastic wrap and freeze until hardened, at least 2 hours; sherbet can be frozen up to 2 weeks ahead.
Tips:
- Use ripe avocados: The riper the avocados, the creamier and more flavorful your sherbet will be.
- Chill your ingredients: Make sure your avocados, milk, and cream are well chilled before churning. This will help the sherbet freeze more quickly and smoothly.
- Don't over-churn the sherbet: Once the sherbet has reached a soft-serve consistency, stop churning. Over-churning will make the sherbet icy and grainy.
- Serve immediately or freeze for later: Avocado sherbet can be served immediately after churning, or it can be frozen for up to 2 weeks. If you freeze it, let it thaw for about 15 minutes before serving.
Conclusion:
Avocado cilantro sherbet is a delicious and refreshing treat that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. Whether you are looking for a light and healthy dessert or a fun and festive treat, this avocado sherbet is sure to please.
