FRIED AVOCADO EGG

Instructions

  1. Fill a medium sized pot with water and bring to a simmer. 
  2. Slowly lower 12 eggs into the water. 
  3. Set a timer for 12 minutes. 
  4. Make a water bath while the eggs are cooking (the water bath will stop the cooking process).
  5. Let eggs sit in a water bath until they are completely cooled, approximately an hour.
  6. Peel and cut eggs in half lengthwise. 
  7. Take the yolks out of the eggs and place them into a mixing bowl. 
  8.  Cut the avocado in half and remove the pit. 
  9. Take the pulp from the skin. 
  10. Add avocado to yolks, with mayonnaise, salt, pepper, lime juice, granulated garlic, and ancho chili powder. 
  11. Mix with a hand or stand mixer until smooth.
  12. Cover with plastic wrap, making sure that the plastic touches the entire surface to keep it from oxidizing. 
  13. Set in the refrigerator to chill for later use. 
  14. Add butter and olive oil to a medium high heat sauté pan.
  15. Toss shrimp in blackening seasoning until fully coated. 
  16. Add the shrimp to the hot sauté pan and cook until the shrimp are just done. This will only take a couple of minutes; overcooking will cause the shrimp to be rubbery. The shrimp can be served hot or chilled on the finished product.
  17.  Place the oil in a heavy duty pot or a small fryer and heat to 350º. 
  18. Set up a breeding station to prepare the reserved egg whites. Use one bowl for seasoned flour, a second bowl for egg wash (made with the 4 remaining eggs), and a third bowl for panko bread crumbs. 
  19. Gently dredge the egg whites in the flour with one hand. 
  20. Use the other hand to put the egg into the egg wash. 
  21. Using the dry hand, cover the egg with panko bread crumbs and place into the hot oil; fry until golden brown. 
  22. Place on a drying rack or paper towel to drain excess oil before filling. 
  23. Put cooled avocado filling in a piping bag with a star tip. 
  24. Pipe filling (approximately 1 tablespoon) into the fried egg white. 
  25. Place one blackened shrimp on top of the filling. 
  26. Add paprika or thinned sour cream for garnish.
