How to Make Avocado Fries With Chipotle Ketchup
- **Make the Chipotle Ketchup:** Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add 1/2 cup chopped onion and 2 cloves minced garlic. Sauté for 6 minutes until softened.
- Add 1 (7 ounce) can diced tomatoes, 1 chipotle pepper in adobo sauce (minced), and 1 tablespoon adobo sauce. Cook over low heat for 5 minutes.
- Stir in 1 teaspoon ground cumin, 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika, 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional), 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar, and 2 tablespoons brown sugar. Simmer for 8 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Carefully puree the ketchup in a food processor until smooth. Season with salt to taste.
- **Prepare the Avocado Fries:** Preheat your deep fryer or a large pot of oil to 350°F (175°C).
- Cut 2 ripe avocados in half, remove the pit, and slice each half into 1/4-inch thick fries.
- **Dredge the Fries:** In a shallow dish, whisk together 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon ground cumin, 1 teaspoon ground coriander, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
- In a separate shallow dish, lightly beat 1 large egg with 2 tablespoons milk.
- In another shallow dish, place 1 cup panko breadcrumbs (or seasoned breadcrumbs).
- Dredge each avocado slice in the flour mixture, then dip into the egg mixture, and finally coat thoroughly with the panko breadcrumbs.
- **Fry the Fries:** Carefully place the breaded avocado fries in the hot oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the fryer. Fry for 2-3 minutes per side, until golden brown and crispy.
- Remove the fries from the oil and place them on a wire rack or paper towels to drain excess oil.
- Serve the crispy avocado fries immediately with the chipotle ketchup. Enjoy!
