Avocado "fries" in Parmesan coating (raw)


This is a nice snack or lunch for when you feel like fries, but want to go healthy :). The spice and Parmesan dusting that coats these strips of avocado flesh provides enough flavor to make you feel like you're eating one of those guilty fried foods :).
Recipe idea adapted from here.

Last year: British country apple cake.
Two years ago: Creamy potato and artichoke salad (very light).
Three years ago: Bacon and eggs breakfast with a fresh touch (British) and Vegetable stock from scratch.





Ingredients (for 1 serving):
  • 1 ripe avocado
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 50 g grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/3 teaspoon Middle Eastern spice mix (like za'atar or dukkah or least ras-el-hanout)

Cut the avocado in half and remove the peel and the stone. Cut it into strips resembling fries.
Mix the Parmesan cheese with the spice mix. Dip the avocado "fries" first into the lemon juice, then the spicy cheese on all sides. Put them on a plate and it's done. Serve right away (you know... dig in!).
