Inside Out Stuffed Avocados Recipes

PICKLED AVOCADOS

Steps:

• Combine the vinegar, salt, sugar, coriander seeds, cumin seeds and 1/2 cup water in a small saucepan and bring to a boil, stirring to dissolve the salt and sugar. Remove the pan from the heat and let cool to room temperature.
• Halve, pit and peel the avocados, then cut them into 1/2-inch-thick slices. Place the avocado slices in a wide-mouth pint-size glass jar along with the cilantro sprigs, garlic, jalapeno and lime zest. Pour the cooled brine into the jar and cover. Gently turn the jar upside down and rotate to mix the aromatics, avocado and brine evenly. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours. (The pickled avocado slices will keep, tightly sealed in the refrigerator, for up to 1 week.)

CRAB-STUFFED AVOCADOS

Steps:

• In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, lemon juice, horseradish, chives, mustard, vinegar, cayenne, salt and pepper. Just before serving, gently fold the Louisiana crabmeat into the mayonnaise mixture, being careful to not break up the lumps. Drop heaping spoonfuls of the crab mixture into the avocados and scatter greens on top to serve.

SALMON POKE-STUFFED AVOCADOS

Steps:

• Toast the white sesame seeds in a dry skillet over medium heat, stirring, until lightly golden, about 5 minutes. Remove, then toast the black sesame seeds in the skillet; remove and set aside.
• Toss the salmon, onion, soy sauce, chili-garlic sauce, white sesame seeds, sesame oil and ginger in a medium bowl. Cover and refrigerate until cold, about 30 minutes.
• Halve and pit the avocados, then carefully remove the peel with your fingers. Cut shallow cross-hatch marks into the center of each avocado half (this will make it easier to eat). Squeeze the lemon over the avocados and season with salt. Sprinkle the cut sides of the avocados with the black sesame seeds, gently pressing to adhere. Fill the centers of the avocados with the salmon poke and top with sliced radishes and scallions. Serve immediately.
