Time 1h5m

Yield 32 slices, approx

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 1/2 cups buttermilk
3 tablespoons hot sauce
4 firm-ripe avocados, peeled, pitted, and each sliced into 8 even pieces
1 1/2 cups sour cream
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
1/4 cup cilantro leaf, plus
2 tablespoons chopped cilantro leaves
1/4 cup diced red onion
1 serrano pepper, seeded and minced
1 1/2 teaspoons salt, divided
vegetable oil, for frying
1 1/2 cups fine yellow cornmeal
3 tablespoons flour
3/4 teaspoon spice essence, plus more for seasoning, recipe follows
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
lime wedge, for garnish

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, combine buttermilk, hot sauce and avocado slices. Soak for 30 minutes.
  • In a small bowl, combine the sour cream, lime juice, cilantro, red onion, Serrano pepper, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Stir to combine. Chill until ready to use.
  • In a medium Dutch oven or deep-fryer, fill oil to a depth of 3 to 4 inches (no more than halfway up the sides of the pan.) Heat oil to 375 degrees F over medium-high heat.
  • Combine cornmeal, flour, Essence, baking powder, and the remaining teaspoon of salt in a shallow dish. Dredge soaked avocado slices in the cornmeal mixture, shaking to remove excess cornmeal.
  • Place avocado slices in the hot oil and fry until golden, about 1 to 2 minutes each side. Using a slotted spoon, remove slices and drain on a paper towel-lined plate. Season with additional Essence. Serve immediately with spicy lime crema and garnish with lime wedges.

I followed the recipe exactly and my avocado slices came out soggy. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

I thought the dish was a bit bland. It needed more seasoning.

The crema was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I was able to adjust the recipe to make it milder.

I would have liked the avocado slices to be a bit crispier, but overall this dish was delicious.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover avocados. I also love that it's a healthier alternative to traditional fried foods.
