The recipe,
step by step

  1. 1

    Avocado cream

    Make a crème anglaise by blanching the egg yolk with the sugar and adding the boiling milk. Cook until the mixture coats the back of a spoon. Add the gelatine before the mixture has completely cooled then strain through a china cap sieve. Blend the avocado flesh with the lime, the butter* and the dash of tabasco, smooth using a hand-held blender then use a plastic scraper to push through a drum sieve. If the mixture is prepared the previous day then it is preferable to add ascorbic acid. Combine the avocado cream with the crème anglaise, stirring continuously, then transfer to a piping bag fitted with a plain n° 10 nozzle.
