Preparation

Step 1

In meidum mixing bowl, mash avocados with the juice of one lime. Mix in chopped tomato, cilantro, garlic, salt and chili powder.

Cut onion into 1/2-inch slices. Carefully separate the layers into individual rings. On a wax paper-lined tray, lay out onion rings and fill each with quacamole. Place tray in freezer until solid (about 2 hours).

Add flour, beaten eggs, and panko bread crumbs to three seperate bowls. Remove frozen guacamole rings from freezer. Roll each first in flour, then egg, then bread crumbs. Coat once more with egg and a final time in bread crumbs.

In a large saucepan, heat oil to 350 degrees F. Fry guacamole onion rings inbatches until nicely browned on all sides. Place on paper towel-lined plate to drain off any excess oil. Sprinklw with salt and lime juice. Serve with sour cream.

*Fry them slowly, if they brown too quickly the guacamole will remain cold in the center.
