Instructions
Step 1
Select and cut avocados. When buying a fruit from a store, pay attention to its firmness. A ripe avocado will be softer but still retain its shape. If you purchased an unripe fruit, just put it in a dark place at room temperature for a couple of days. Wash it, cut it in half, leaving a large bone on one side. Peel off the tough peel in a thin layer, remove the bone. Cut the avocado into cubes or thin petals.
Step 2
The easiest way to use the fruit is to spread it on a thin slice of black bread, sprinkle with lemon, salt if desired. Avocados are high in fat and high in calories, so this sandwich is perfect for breakfast.
Step 3
Make a pate. Mash the avocado pulp with a fork, add salt and pepper, a little lemon juice and olive oil to it. Mix the ingredients thoroughly. Apply pate to crispbread, toast, or crackers.
Step 4
Cut the avocado into thin slices and season with salt and pepper. Drizzle with olive oil and add some lemon juice. A light snack will appeal to even the most sophisticated gourmets.
Step 5
Make an avocado and shrimp salad. Their combination will surprise you with their balanced and rich taste. Defrost the shrimp, peel them of the shell, leaving only the tail.
Step 6
Rinse the green salad and pat dry on a clean towel. Cut the avocado, peel and cut into petals. Peel the grapefruit, remove the webbing and break into small slices.
Step 7
Place the hand-torn salad on a wide plate and place the grapefruit on top. Next, add the avocado and shrimp. Season salad with salt, sprinkle with lemon juice and drizzle with olive oil. Do not stir such a salad so as not to damage the delicate avocado, which will ruin the appearance of the finished dish.
