Avocado Mousse image

This avocado mousse is really easy to whip together and has so much rich, tangy, and zesty flavor. Super versatile, my favorite ways to use it are as a taco, burrito bowl, or fajita topping, or switch it up for a salad dressing (it's particularly good in a Cobb salad), a dip for a crudite platter, or spread on a sandwich or burger.

AVOCADO MOUSSE WITH PAPAYA TOMATO RELISH

Avocado Mousse with Papaya Tomato Relish image

Categories Blender Fruit Tomato Vegetable Freeze/Chill Papaya Avocado Summer Chill Gourmet

Yield Makes 8 first-course servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

Ingredients

For mousse
3 firm-ripe California avocados (1 1/2 to 1 3/4 lb total)
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1 (500-mg) vitamin C tablet, crushed to a powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/4 teaspoons unflavored gelatin (from a 1/4-oz envelope)
3 tablespoons whole milk
1/3 cup chilled heavy cream
For relish
3 tablespoons tarragon white-wine vinegar
1 to 2 tablespoons sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 lb grape tomatoes, cut into 1/4-inch dice (1/2 cup)
1/2 lb papaya, peeled, seeded, and cut into 1/4-inch dice (1/2 cup)
2 tablespoons chopped red onion
1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh tarragon
Special Equipment
8 (3-oz) ramekins

Steps:

Make mousse:
Lightly oil ramekins and line bottoms with wax paper or parchment, then oil paper.
Quarter, pit, and peel 2 avocados. Purée avocado quarters with 1 tablespoon lemon juice, vitamin C, and salt in a food processor until smooth.
Sprinkle gelatin over milk in a small heavy saucepan and let soften 1 minute. Heat over low heat, stirring, until gelatin is dissolved, 1 to 2 minutes, then remove from heat. Add to avocado purée and blend until smooth.
Halve, pit, and peel remaining avocado. Cut into 1/4-inch dice and toss with remaining teaspoon lemon juice in a small bowl. Beat cream in a bowl with an electric mixer at medium speed until it just holds soft peaks. Fold in avocado purée gently but thoroughly, then fold in diced avocado. Spoon mousse into ramekins, smoothing tops. Cover surface of each mousse with a piece of plastic wrap, then cover ramekins with plastic wrap. Chill mousse until set, at least 2 hours.
Make relish:
Whisk together vinegar, sugar (to taste), salt, and pepper in a bowl until sugar is dissolved, then stir in tomatoes, papaya, onion, and tarragon. Let stand at room temperature 1 hour (for flavors to develop).
Unmold mousse by running a knife around edge of each ramekin, then invert each onto a plate, discarding paper. Serve with relish.

Tips:

Choose ripe avocados: For a smooth and creamy mousse, use ripe avocados that yield to gentle pressure. Unripe avocados will be hard and difficult to scoop out.
Use fresh papaya: Fresh papaya adds a sweet and tropical flavor to the relish. If you don't have fresh papaya, you can use canned or frozen papaya, but the flavor will be less intense.
Use ripe tomatoes: Ripe tomatoes add a juicy and tangy flavor to the relish. Avoid using unripe tomatoes, as they will be sour and less flavorful.
Adjust the spiciness: The amount of chili pepper you use in the relish will determine its spiciness. If you don't like spicy food, you can omit the chili pepper or use a milder variety.
Serve chilled: Both the avocado mousse and the papaya tomato relish are best served chilled. This helps to enhance their flavors and textures.

Conclusion:

This avocado mousse with papaya tomato relish is a delicious and refreshing appetizer or snack. It's easy to make and can be prepared ahead of time, making it perfect for parties or potlucks. The creamy avocado mousse pairs perfectly with the sweet and tangy papaya tomato relish, creating a delightful combination of flavors and textures. Whether you're looking for a healthy and satisfying snack or an impressive appetizer to serve your guests, this recipe is sure to please.
