Avocado Soup
- 3 ripe avocados
- 350 ml chicken broth
- 200 ml whipping cream
- 30 ml lemon juice
- 30 ml cognac (or brandy)
- curry, salt and black pepper
Instructions:
This dish can be served as a starter (enough for at least 4 persons) but it is also rich enough to be a meal in itself, e.g. a lunch for an amorous couple.
- Cut the avocados into halves, remove the large seeds. Pour the lemon juice over one of the halves to prevent it from darkening.
- Scoop out the meat from the five halves.
- Put the avocado meat, the chicken broth and 150 ml of the whipping cream in a food processor. Puree until the soup is very smooth.
- Add the cognac and curry, salt and black pepper as desired.
- Whip the remaining 50 ml of whipping cream.
- Remove the skin from the remaining avocado half, cut the meat into thin slices.
- When you serve the soup, add avocado slices to each plate. Top with a dollop of whipped cream.
