Avocado Mousse With Papaya Tomato Relish Recipes

Steps:

• Place the chocolate chips in a small bowl. Place over a small saucepan of barely simmering water. Stir until the chocolate is melted and smooth, about 3 minutes. Set aside to cool slightly.
• Place the melted chocolate, avocados, agave, cocoa powder, vanilla and salt in a food processor. Blend until smooth and creamy, scraping the sides of the bowl as needed. Spoon into glasses and refrigerate for at least 3 hours (can be prepared 1 day in advance). Garnish with fresh raspberries and serve.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, whisk together the mustard, olive oil, balsamic vinegar and pepper. Arrange the slices of avocado and tomato alternately like the spokes of a wheel on one big serving plate, or individual plates. Drizzle lightly with the dressing, and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Mix together all the ingredients. Let sit for 15 minutes, in or out of the refrigerator, before serving.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, combine the onion, chilli, tomatoes, lime and vinegar with some seasoning and mix well. Can be made a few hours in advance and kept in the fridge. When you're ready to eat, peel, stone and chop the avocados and add them to the salsa mix along with the coriander. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, roughly mash the bananas, avocados, lemon zest, lemon juice, honey, creme fraiche, and 2 teaspoons salt with a fork. Transfer the mixture to a food processor or blender. Puree the mixture until really smooth. Place the mousse in a clean bowl and put in the freezer for at least 1 hour before serving.
• For the red onion puree: Heat the oil in a large saucepan until just smoking, then add the onions and cook until theyre deep brown. Stir constantly so the onions dont burn. When the onions are browned, add the red wine, port wine, and remaining 2 teaspoons salt, and simmer to reduce until the onions have absorbed all the wine. Remove the pan from the heat and transfer to a food processor or blender. Allow to cool for 1 minute. Puree the onions and run through a fine sieve and let cool.
• To serve: In a martini glass, place a scoop of the mousse and top with the red onion puree. Enjoy as an appetizer or funky dessert.

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.
