GREEN & SUPREME

The mighty avocado

Beautiful in taste and appearance, and nutritious too, the avocado has rightly earned its place at the kitchen table. Smashed onto toast, cubed over salad, whizzed into a smoothie or mashed into dips, the subtle green fruit’s versatility knows no bounds

Carefully cutting around the fruit's large central stone

Carefully peel the skin away from the flesh with your fingers or the tip of a knife
