Testicle treat
I’m not writing about anything bizarre or pornographic or weird. I am told, however, that I’m a bit weird. Anywho, what I’m thrilled about is avocado (also known as the testicle fruit). The recipes one can come up with this fruit as the base is countless - chutney, kheer, finger chips, etc etc.
Some I’ve tried, some I haven’t but think would turn out great:
Chutney - A blended puree of avaocado, tomato, lemon, ginger, chilli, salt and pepper (consistency of ketchup or mustard).
Kheer - A blended puree of avocado, soy milk, cinnamon, cardomom, soaked almonds and sugar (consistency of yoplait).
Finger chips - Oven toasted long cut avocado pieces dipped in a mixture of salt, pepper, turmeric, asofetida, gram four or bread crumbs.
Hybrid dosa - Crepes of oats, rice flour and farina mixed with blended avocado. Also, regular crepes mixed with avocado paste.
I am not very much into cooking these days (mainly due to a demanding 8 month old with a reflux problem). But I do enjoy talking about food and learning new things. More so nowadays as I’m cut off from dairy.
Little did I know that I would have dairy withdrawal symptoms. Avocado recipes help me get over them so quickly because they are so delicious!!
