I'm not sure if I ever mentioned my love of the idea of avocado fries (have you seen them all over Pinterest?) to J or not, but either way, he found the recipe on his own and decided to surprise me with a Saturday treat. A lovely, lovely treat.
With inspiration from here, he went to work.
What To Do
- We used four avocados, but two would suffice for two people. Cut them lengthwise and carefully remove the pit and the avocado from its skin without disrupting it too much. This means you need avocados that are just hard enough to stay intact, but soft enough to scoop out easily!
- Preheat oven to 350
- We didn't have any panko in the house, so we used a mortar and pestle to crush up soda crackers with a ton of spices. Mix in whatever you want and have fun with it! We used: himalayan sea salt, chili powder, onion salt, garlic powder, celery seed, freshly cracked black pepper, Italian blend.
- Slice your avocados to resemble fries or wedges.
- Dip each piece in egg and coat in the cracker/spice mixture.
- Place tinfoil on a baking pan and a baking rack on top of that (to make it easier to turn the soft avocados over without breaking them).
- Place the fries on the rack and bake for 20 minutes, turning them over at the halfway point.
That's it! Dip it in homemade curried mayo or agave sweetened ketchup and call it a day!
