Spirulina guacamole recipe

To enjoy spirulina powder pleasantly, we suggest you include it in a recipe for your family aperitifs or as an avocado-based starter: Spiru-guacamole.

You need a blender and here is the list of ingredients:

1 avocado
1 or 2 sprigs of basil
1 fresh lemon
1 small white onion
salt + spice
Athma spirulina powder

The steps of the recipe:

  • Prepare the avocado: cut it in half, remove its skin, then cut into small cubes.
  • Mixer to assemble and bind: put the pieces of avocado in the bowl of the mixer, add the lemon juice (quantity according to your taste).
  • Then you have to peel the onion, cut it in four and put it in the blender.
  • Add the fresh basil and 2 teaspoons of spirulina
  • Add your spices: salt (at least) and Indian spice of your choice.
  • Mix everything finely

To serve, we invite you either to spread the Spiru-guacamole on toast, or to use it in a small purée accompanying a plate of entry of vegetables.

You should thus have a dish for about 4 people and this will have mobilized you about 10 minutes.

Good tasting.

    – the chopped onion,
    – eggs,
    – sesame seeds
    – the curry before salt and pepper.
  • Mix everything together with a wooden spoon and let stand for at least an hour in the refrigerator (middle shelf).

 

Make your pancakes:

  • Take the preparation and it is now that we can add the spirulina and mix everything to have a uniform appearance and color.
  • In a non-stick, hot and lightly oiled pan, pour four piles of dough that you will flatten as you go with a wooden spatula to give the shape to the 4 patties.
  • For 6 to 7 minutes over low heat, you must let the dough set in solidity and refine the shape.
  • The next step is to stop cooking, and gently turn the patties over, letting them finish cooking on the second side using the residual heat from the pan for a few minutes.

 

You will be able to feast as a duo. Indeed the quantities indicated made it possible to make 4 pancakes for 2 people.
Spiru-quinoa pancakes are best eaten hot.
