I briefly saw this in a movie I watched recently. It look so cute I had to create a recipe. I tested it a few nights ago for my husband and I to sample. I stepped away for a minute and he had managed to eat 12. He was not all that hungry either. They were just that good and so refreshing. Now I already know alot of people will choose to purchase the guacomole. That is ok. This recipe will still work. But,this recipe is so simple and tasty I encourage you to go the extra mile and do it atleast once from scratch!!!!
Recipe follows:
24 small tomatoes ( Now, I don't have a specific name because there are so many varieties available today. But this is what you want: A tomato larger than a cherry tomato and small enough to pop in your mouth as a appetizer. No utensils needed!!)
2 Hass avacados
1 small tomato, seeded and diced small
1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
3 corn tortillas
canola oil for frying
Directions:
Using a paring knife, cut a small piece from the bottom of each tomato so it can stand on a plate. Then using pairing knife carfully cut a circle at the top and remove filling. Preparing a place to put the stuffing.
Cut both Hass avacados in a small dice and place in bowl, add garlic salt, pepper, olive oil. With a fork gently mash and mix ingredients until combined. Do not totally mash avacado. Taste for seasonings.
Spoon mixture into each tomato. Filling it until it over flows and has a round top.
In a medium sized skillet heat canola oil, about 1/2 inch in pan until frying temp. (oil will have alittle wave running through it)
Using a shot glass or small cookie cutter cut 12 rounds from tortillas. Fry in skillet about 20 seconds on each side. Remove when golden, place on a papper towl to drain and lightly salt.Let cool.
When plating, place each tomato on top of the crisp tortilla round and serve.
Enjoy!!!
