Time 15m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 bunch of thick asparagus, (350g)
2 x 150 g chunky fillets of white fish, skin off, pin-boned, from sustainable sources
2 spring onions
1 lemon
red wine vinegar
½ a bunch of tarragon, (10g)
1 really ripe avocado
1 large free-range egg
extra virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Pour 1cm of water into a large cold pan. Snap the woody ends off the asparagus, then place the spears in the pan and sit the fish fillets on top. Place on a high heat, cover and steam for 5 minutes, or until the fish is just cooked through. Meanwhile, trim the spring onions, roughly chop the green parts and place in a small pan on a high heat with half the lemon juice, 1 teaspoon of red wine vinegar, a pinch of sea salt and black pepper and 100ml of water. Bring to the boil while you pick half the tarragon leaves into a blender. Halve and destone the avocado, scoop the flesh into the blender, and add just the egg yolk. Pour in the hot spring onion mixture, then blitz until silky smooth and season to perfection. Very finely slice the whites of the spring onions and mix with the remaining tarragon leaves.
  • Serve the fish and asparagus with the avocado hollandaise, finishing with pinches of the tarragon and spring onion and a light drizzle of extra virgin olive oil. Serve with lemon wedges, for squeezing over.

Provided by Kyndra Holley

Categories     Pasta Recipes

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 medium ripe avocado, halved and pitted
3 cloves garlic
1 cup fresh basil leaves
3/4 cup fresh spinach leaves or parsley
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 cup toasted almonds
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 cup water, more if desired
3 tablespoons olive oil or avocado oil
3 cups dry pasta of choice (I used fusilli)
extra grated Parmesan cheese, optional for serving
extra basil, optional for serving
pinch red pepper flakes, optional for serving

Steps:

  • Add all of the ingredients for the pesto, minus the oil, to a food processor or high-powered blender. Pulse until everything is finely chopped and begins to form a paste.
  • With the food processor or blender running, slowly pour in the oil. Continue to pulse until smooth.
  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add a pinch of salt to the water. Cook the pasta as per the directions on the package. Strain the pasta.
  • Add the cooked pasta and pesto to a large mixing bowl and toss until the pasta is evenly coated in the pesto. Garnish with fresh basil, parmesan cheese and red pepper flakes before serving.

Tips:

  • To ensure a smooth and creamy sauce, use ripe avocados. Look for avocados that are dark green or black in color and slightly soft when gently squeezed.
  • For a zesty and tangy flavor, use fresh lime juice. If you don't have lime juice on hand, you can substitute lemon juice or white vinegar.
  • If you prefer a spicy sauce, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or chopped jalapeño pepper. You can also add chopped cilantro or parsley for a fresh and herbaceous flavor.
  • To make a thicker sauce, add more avocado or sour cream. For a thinner sauce, add more lime juice or water.
  • Avocado sauce is best when served fresh. However, you can store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.

Conclusion:

Silky avocado sauce is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be used in a variety of dishes. It's perfect for topping tacos, burritos, enchiladas, and quesadillas. It can also be used as a dip for chips, vegetables, or crackers. With its creamy texture and zesty flavor, avocado sauce is sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy way to add flavor to your meal, give avocado sauce a try. You won't be disappointed!
