Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Food, Cooking, and Game Preparation Speaking of Avocados

I made this for dinner the other day. Chilled Avocado Leek soup. Fresh jumbo Shrimp on the side.

I don't know so much about the green, but my that shrimp looks good.

Don't leave us hangin' man.
Recipe for the soup please!

Avocado and Leek Soup
Four ripe Avocados, peeled, cut into slices
Two Leeks. Thinly slice the white portion, and some of the more tender green
Two tablespoons butter
8 ounces Heavy Cream
One quart Chicken stock
Kosher Salt, fresh ground Black Pepper t o taste
1/2 Tsp Medium Chili powder

In a heavy pot, lightly brown the sliced Leeks in the butter.
Place in Food processor, along with 1/4 cup of the Chicken Stock, and puree
Add the Avocado slices and another 1/4 cup stock. Puree
Transfer back to the heavy pot, add the rest of the stock, and bring to a slow boil. Stir often, do not let it burn or over heat.
Check the seasoning, add in the Heavy Cream, return to a boil for just a few moments. Stir well, and remove from the heat.
Cool on top of stove for 10 min, then transfer to a glass or metal bowl, and place in the refrigerator until chilled.
