Directions
- 1
Halve the avocados, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a blender using a spoon.
- 2
Add the sweetened condensed milk, the juice and zest of one lime, and the pinch of sea salt. Blend on high speed for 2 to 3 minutes until the mixture is completely smooth and fluffy.
- 3
Taste and adjust the lime juice to your preference — more for extra zing, less for a milder flavour.
- 4
Spoon or pipe the mousse into individual serving glasses and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes.
- 5
Just before serving, garnish each glass with a thin lime slice and a sprig of fresh mint.
💡 Chef's Tip
For the creamiest result, use very ripe Hass avocados — their buttery flesh blends to a velvety texture. A small pinch of sea salt is the secret that makes the lime flavour really pop.
