Wonton wrappers, filled with a mixture
of cooked sausage, avocado and cheese, are deep-fried. Not sure
why they're call 'avocado angels', but maybe it is because they
taste heavenly!
Avocado Angels
3/4 pound chorizo sausage or hot ground
pork sausage
4 large ripe avocados, peeled and mashed
3 tablespoons lime juice
1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 cup (4-ounces) Mexican style shredded cheese
60 small wonton wrappers
Vegetable oil
- Cook sausage in a large skillet over medium
heat, stirring until it crumbles and is no longer pink; drain
and let cool.
- Stir together avocado and next 3 ingredients;
stir in sausage and cheese.
- Spoon 1 tablespoon mixture into center
of each wonton wrapper. Moisten edges with water. Fold corners
of wrapper to center, enclosing filling and pinching wrapper
edges to seal. Place on wax paper coated with vegetable cooking
spray; cover with additional wax paper.
- Pour oil to a depth of 3-inches into a
Dutch oven; heat to 350°F
(175°C). Fry wontons, 3 or 4 at
a time, 1 1/2 minutes on each side or until golden; drain.
Makes 5 dozen.
