[Food Photo Series] Go Green with Avocado Spread

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us


The majority of people in the North and South America continents know this spread or dipping as guacamole, but for people who grew up in Indonesia, avocado is used to make a sweet blended shake for a beverage or a dessert. No wonder, a number of my multiply readers were asking; how does the savoury avocado taste like?

Mayoness is a condiment that ample people use for their sandwich, but I barely apply it. For the health purpose, we have been reducing mayo's utilization on sandwiches. Avocado gives the creamy texture as mayo does. Easy and fast to make. I suggest to use Hass Avocado, also known as Guacamole Avocado or Alpukat Mentega in Indonesia. Hass avocado or alpukat mentega is perfect for Indonesian avocado shake (Indonesian: jus alpukat) as well.

You can add any kind of herbs as you desire and green onion or red onion. In this case, cilantro and chopped red onion were added, do not forget lemon squeezed; for, it is reduced the browning that is a result of the oxidation process.

Pursuing what I studied in Indonesia, and trying to go back to my old career are my concentration right now. Since Canada has a different system is not that easy. However, food is still my obsession. In order to focus on my school, away from multiply and blogspot for a moment as the school started may be the choice; nevertheless, I will still post once a while. I apologize to my readers for this reason.

On my busy days between class and work, I sometimes crave for one of my comfort food. Spaghetti is one of them, ever since I know arrabiata sauce, I don't really relish marinara sauce anymore. Arrabiata is perfect for a person who loves hot spicy, like me.

You will not need a recipe for this one, for I just added minced garlic and sliced onion to cooked spaghetti and mixed with the sauce. It will be good if you prefer enhance with ground beef, mushroom, and other vegetables.
