Crunchy Avocado With Sweet Chili Mayo
- 1.5 cups corn flakes
- 1/4 cup sliced almonds
- 1/4 cup sesame seeds (black and white look best)
- 1/4 cup flaked, unsweetened coconut
- Pinch red pepper flakes or chili powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- flour for dredging
- 1 egg
- Splash milk
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 carrot, sliced into thin ribbons
- 1 jalapeno, sliced thinly into rounds or strips
- 1 cucumber, cut into thin spears
- 8 cilantro stalks
- 1/2 cup mayo
- 1 tablespoon sweet chili garlic sauce
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 1/4 inch oil for frying
- 2 avocados
- Pulse corn flakes, coconut, almonds and sesame seeds in a food processor to a coarse crumb. Put into a shallow bowl. Put flour into a second bowl and whisk egg, milk and honey in a third bowl.
- Heat oil over medium heat to about 325.
- Cut avocados in half, remove pit and scoop flesh from skin using a large spoon. Cut into 6-8 pieces. Dredge in flour, shaking off excess. Dip in egg mixture then nut mixture.
- Mix mayo, lime, chili sauce and s&p to taste.
- Fry avocado slices in oil very briefly until crust browns, flipping once and draining on paper towels. Allow to cool a bit.
- Place a jalapeno slice, cucumber spear and cilantro leaf on each avocado slice and wrap with a carrot ribbon. Serve with dipping sauce. Our jalapenos were intensely hot so I ended up removing the seeds- you might want to test one first!
