A West Indian speciality whose recipe is fairly close to guacamole, avocado féroce gets its "ferocious" aspect from the strength of the spice used in its preparation. So you never know quite how ferocious this dish will be!
Whether it's merely fragrant or very spicy, the preparation usually consists of dried cod, local avocado and manioc flour. The cod is first de-salted, crumbled and mixed with the avocado flesh, lime juice, bunching onion, garlic, habanero pepper and manioc flour.
Often served with a glass of ti-punch, this tasty recipe is wonderful as an appetiser, served like a guacamole with corn chips, as a sandwich spread, rolled into small balls, or as a starter with crudités.
