Taco Ingredients

Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Avocados

    Cut the avocados in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a bowl. Mash the avocado with lime juice, salt, and pepper until creamy, but still a bit chunky.

  2. 2

    Coat the Avocados

    Cut the mashed avocado into thick slices. Dredge each slice in cornstarch until fully coated.

  3. 3

    Fry the Avocado

    In a deep skillet or frying pan, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully add the coated avocado slices and fry until golden and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Tacos

    In each taco shell, add a generous portion of shredded lettuce, followed by the crispy avocado slices, halved cherry tomatoes, and chopped cilantro. Top with a dollop of sour cream.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the crispy avocado tacos warm with extra lime wedges on the side.
