FRIED AVOCADO WONTONS WITH GOAT CHEESE & CILANTRO AIOLI

Steps:

• Couldn't be easier: stuff a wonton wrapper with a little scoop of avocado and goat cheese. Seal with as little water as possible, and the fry in hot oil. Serve with cilantro aioli dipping sauce. These are easy to assemble in advance, and then fry when ready. They keep well in a covered container in the fridge. Infusing Aioli Aioli is very easy to make, all you need is a large bowl, whisk, and muscle power. Of course, a food processor or blender will do it for you. Cilantro Aioli Recipe Beat the egg yolk with the lemon. Toss it into a medium-sized bowl with the lemon juice & salt. Add the olive oil by the teaspoon and beat with a whisk until the olive oil is completely combined. The mixture should be yellow, frothy, and opaque. You want to beat it until all the droplets of olive oil have disappeared. Repeat this process-adding a teaspoon, then beating to emulsify it-until you've added about 1/4 cup of the oil. As you go, the mixture should begin to turn a creamy yellow, and become more and more opaque. When you've added 1/4 of a cup of oil by the spoonful, your emulsion should be off to a really good start. It should coat the back of a spoon, but should still be pretty thin. Start to drizzle the oil in, beating it as you go to incorporate it completely. Go slowly, and be patient. If you add the oil too fast, or dump it in all at once, the oil will overwhelm the emulsion you've built and it will separate. After a minute or two of drizzling and beating, the aioli should start to look very creamy. Now it is time to flavor. What will knock the socks? Chopped garlic, fresh herbs, another squeeze of lemon, some saffron threads? You decide! Use within 3 days or so. *Would be amazing with crab! You can really do all kinds of stuffings with these
