Mounya's Fruit Guacamole on a Ricotta Bed

Mounya came up with this idea last night, when she invited me for dinner. We had a delicious green curry soup with a strong limey flavour, and for dessert this. It's remarkably simple, healthy, cheap, nutritious and convenient. Everybody likes fruit, and if you're vegan, you can always prepare an alternative ricotta with nuts, which is also easy to make.

Ingredients:
~2 cups of strawberries
1 banana
1 avocado
2 spoonfuls of ricotta, or an exaggerated spoonful (as shown in the picture)
Honey/Agave syrup

Some fresh basil leaves

Scoop up enough ricotta to cover the bottom of the plate you'll serve the dish on.

Sweeten it with some honey. To taste, and depending on how much ricotta you used.

Stir well, and then spread it on the serving dish.


Scoop out one whole avocado into stirring bowl.

Mash and stir well, till you've got punto de Guacamole.

Slice some of the fruit, chop up the rest. The slices will be used to decorate the dish, so reserve them.

The crushed bits go into the squashed avocado.

Again, sweeten with honey.

Stir and squash, of course.

If it looks gooey, you know you're on the right track. It's a type of Guacamole, after all.

Don't be afraid to pour it over the pure, virginal-white Ricotta bed.

Decorate it with the sliced fruit and honey.

Mince some fresh basil leaves and sprinkle over dish.

Let it sit on the fridge for some ten minutes, and serve cool.
