Soupe D'avocat


Title: Soupe D'avocat
Categories: None
Yield: 1 servings

2 Ripe avocados
4 c Cold chicken broth
2 tb Freshly squeezed lime juice
1/2 ts Cayenne pepper
Salt and freshly ground
-black pepper to taste

Here's a very good, very simple avocado soup recipe from West Africa.

Peel the avocados and mash them in a food processor or blender until they
are a smooth paste. Add the paste to the chicken broth, stirring well so
the soup is homogeneous. Add the remaining ingredients, mix thoroughly, and
chill in the refrigerator for at least one hour before serving. Garnish
with fresh chives and diced avocado bits and serve cold.

Note: adjust pepper heat to taste. I've also used a very small amount of
wasabe paste to liven this up too.
