Prepare the Avocados
Cut the avocados in half and remove the pit. Scoop out some of the flesh to create a larger cavity for the filling. You can mash the scooped-out flesh and mix it into the shrimp filling if desired.

Make the Tostones
Peel the green plantains and cut them into 1-inch thick slices. Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Fry the plantain slices until golden, about 2-3 minutes on each side. Remove and flatten each slice using a tostonera or a flat surface. Return to the hot oil and fry again until crispy. Drain on paper towels.
