Ingredients
- Tomato (medium) – 4
- Red bell pepper (small) -½
- Basil – 2 sprigs
- Celery (chopped) – 2 tablespoons
- Sugar – 2 tablespoons
- Garlic clove -½
- Pepper – a generous pinch
- Spring onions (chopped) – 3 tablespoons
- Avocado (small) – 1
- Lemon juice – 1 tablespoon
- Yogurt -¼ cup
- Salt to taste
Method:
- Just cut tomatoes into quarters and roughly chop the bell pepper. Put the tomatoes and bell pepper in a mixer grinder jar along with basil, garlic, sugar, salt and pepper. Blend it all nicely to make a fine puree. Once done, remove the jar and keep it aside.
- Cut the avocado. How will you do that? Run the knife from the top to the centre and then, along the seed present in the centre. Twist the 2 halves of the avocado and split them. Remove the seed first and then, remove the pulp using a spoon. Take a blender jar, and add the pulp of the avocado, spring onions, yogurt, salt, pepper and lemon into it. Blend it properly until you get a smooth and runny paste.
- Now comes the final step. For this, you need small shot glasses. First, add the thick avocado puree uphill two third of the glass. Now, top it up with some tomato juice. Garnish with basil leaves and chill the glasses in your fridge before serving.
