Description
A crisp, refreshing snack featuring cucumber ribbons and a creamy avocado spread, brightened with lime and fresh herbs.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 large cucumber
- 1 ripe avocado
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh herbs (like cilantro or mint) for garnish
Instructions
- Slice the cucumber lengthwise into thin strips using a mandoline or vegetable peeler. Aim for long, even ribbons so they roll easily. Pat the strips dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.
- Mash the avocado in a bowl and mix in lime juice, salt, and pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning.
- Spread a thin layer of the avocado mixture on each cucumber strip. Roll the cucumber slices tightly and secure with a toothpick if needed.
- Garnish with fresh herbs and serve immediately. Add a sprinkle of cracked pepper or smoked paprika for extra flavor.
Notes
These rolls are best eaten fresh. Store short term in an airtight container lined with damp paper towel for up to 6 hours.
