Boquerones Ingredients

Method

Preparation Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Anchovies

    Clean the fresh anchovies by removing the heads and guts. Rinse them under cold water. Place them in a bowl and cover with white wine vinegar. Let them marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.

  2. 2

    Make the Vinagreta

    In a small bowl, mix olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Stir well and set aside.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Avocado Puree

    Scoop out the flesh of the ripe avocados into a blender. Add lime juice, a pinch of salt, and blend until smooth. Adjust seasoning to taste.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Dish

    Once the anchovies are marinated, drain them from the vinegar and arrange them on a serving plate. Drizzle the prepared vinagreta over the anchovies. Serve the avocado puree on the side and garnish with potato chips.
