Yield 6 Servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 large ripe but firm avocados
1 1/2 cups buttermilk
1 1/2 cups plain yogurt
2 heaping tablespoons chopped cilantro
1 large clove garlic, thinly sliced
1/2 serrano or jalapeño chile, seeds removed for less heat if desired, or more to taste
1/2 teaspoon toasted and ground cumin seeds
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lime juice
Kosher or sea salt
For the salsa:
1 large plum (Roma) tomato, halved lengthwise, seeded, and cut into 1/4-inch dice
1/4 cup finely minced white onion
2 heaping tablespoons chopped cilantro
1/2 serrano or jalapeño chile, seeds removed for less heat if desired, finely minced
1 small clove garlic, finely minced
Kosher or sea salt
Freshly squeezed lime juice

Steps:

  • Halve and pit the avocados. Set aside half an avocado for the salsa. Put the remaining avocado flesh in a blender with the buttermilk, yogurt, cilantro, garlic, chile, and cumin. Blend until smooth. Taste and add more chile if desired, and then blend again. Transfer to a bowl and stir in enough cold water to thin the soup to a pleasing consistency, about 1/2 cup. Stir in the lime juice, or more to taste, and season with salt. Chill thoroughly.
  • Just before serving, prepare the salsa: In a bowl, stir together the tomato, onion, cilantro, chile, and garlic. Cut the reserved avocado half into 1/4-inch dice and fold it in gently, and then season to taste with salt and lime juice and stir again gently to avoid mashing the avocado.
  • If the soup has thickened in the refrigerator, whisk in ice water to thin it to the desired consistency. Taste for seasoning. Divide among 6 bowls. Top each serving with a spoonful of salsa and serve.

STEAK TACOS WITH AVOCADO AND CHARRED TOMATO SALSA



STEAK TACOS WITH AVOCADO AND CHARRED TOMATO SALSA image

Categories     Beef

Yield 4 people

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 medium tomatoes, halved and cored
1 fresh Serrano chili, stemmed
Salt
1 pound flank steak
½ tablespoon olive oil
3 tablespoons finely diced red onion
3 tablespoons finely chopped cilantro
2 large ripe avocados, halved and pitted
2 limes, cut into wedges
8 fresh corn tortillas

Steps:

  • 1. Place tomatoes and chili on a roasting tray and set under the broiler. Roast, turning once, until charred all over, about 12 minutes total. Place charred tomatoes and chili in a food processor and pulse until a coarse salsa forms, about 1 minute. Season with salt to taste. Set aside. 2. Season steak with salt. Set a grill pan over high heat. Once pan is very hot, swirl in oil. Lay in steak and sear until charred and medium rare, 3-5 minutes per side. Remove steak from heat and set aside. 3. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, toss onions with cilantro and a pinch of salt. In another small bowl, make guacamole: Mash avocado with a fork. Season to taste with juice from a few lime wedges and salt. 4. Set a stovetop burner to high. Using tongs, hold each tortilla over burner until soft and charred in spots, less than 1 minute per side. Slice steak thinly against the grain. 5. Smear guacamole over tortillas. Top with sliced steak and onion-cilantro mixture. Serve with salsa and remaining lime wedges on the side.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe avocados: The avocado should yield to gentle pressure when squeezed. This ensures a creamy and flavorful salsa.
  • Use fresh, flavorful tomatoes: Look for tomatoes that are ripe, juicy, and have a deep red color. Avoid tomatoes that are bruised or have blemishes.
  • Don't over-chop the ingredients: Roughly chop the tomatoes and avocado into small chunks to maintain their texture and prevent the salsa from becoming too mushy.
  • Balance the flavors: Adjust the amount of lime juice, salt, and cilantro to your taste. You can also add a pinch of cayenne pepper or chili powder for a bit of heat.
  • Chill before serving: Refrigerate the salsa for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld and develop.
  • Serve with tortilla chips, tacos, or grilled chicken: This salsa is a versatile condiment that can be enjoyed with a variety of dishes.
