Stuffed avocado supreme suggestions
When scooping out the avocado flesh, add some lemon juice to help stop it from browning as it also adds some zest to the taste. Prawns cook quickly in a hot pan, especially if you’ve removed the shells. Bechamel sauce is made by melting one tablespoon of butter and another of flour until flour smell goes away. After which, you can slowly add one cup of milk and continue whisking until thick. Remember to season everything with salt and black pepper.
