Fried Avocado Taco

Get ready to get your socks knocked off. Yep, a fried avocado taco. As if avocado can get any better, right? Of all of the things I knew you could do with avocado I had never thought of frying it. But everything tastes better fried so why not!?!? And with beer batter? And in a taco?  Get. Out. of. Town. YUM!

Ok, here’s how you do it. Easy peasy.

Taco Ingredients:

·         2 to 3 firm-ish avocadoes, peeled, seeded and sliced into ¾ inch slices

·         1 cup beer

·         1 cup flour

·         1 teaspoon salt

·         Aprox. 4 cups  vegetable oil

·         Flour or corn tortillas

·         Cabbage, thinly sliced

·         Grated cheese

·         (anything else you want to add – onion, corn, black beans, you name it. Treat this like you would a fish taco)

Sauce Ingredients

·         Half cup mayonnaise

·         ¼ cup sour cream

·         1 teaspoon (or more!) Sriracha sauce/Tapatio/spicy sauce of choice

·         1 lime, squeezed

Directions

Combine beer, flour and salt into a medium sized bowl. Heat oil in a deep pan or pot on medium heat (375 degrees) until hot. Roll avocado in beer batter and drop into pan. Rotate once and remove when batter has turned to a golden brown. Drain on a paper towel. Combine sauce ingredients while avocados are frying. Assemble. Devour.
