Living in a small town (Shimla) nestled in the breathtaking Himalayas comes with its perks, but access to peculiar ingredients for my Ketogenic lifestyle is often limited.
Thankfully, I make the most of my trips to the plains by stocking up on essential items.
On one such shopping excursion, something caught my eye—avocados!
Now, for many people, this may not seem like a big deal.
But for me, it was a thrilling moment as it marked my first encounter with this intriguing fruit.
Filled with excitement, I brought the avocados home, only to find myself pondering over what to do with them. Determined to make the most of this newfound treasure, I reached out to friends for guidance on determining their ripeness.
Through videos, images, and helpful tips, I went through a sort of crash course on avocado ripeness, learning when and how to enjoy it.
Grateful for the wealth of information, I eagerly waited as the avocados sat on my kitchen counter, patiently monitoring their progress each morning.
Finally, after over a week of anticipation, the avocados transformed. Avocados turned dark green, mushy, and squishy to the touch, and they were ready for use. It wasn’t the prettiest sight, but I knew it should be enjoyed.
With great anticipation, I carefully sliced open the avocados, revealing their creamy and nutritious flesh, a reward for my patience and curiosity.
So once the avocados are ready, you just need to scoop the pulp out or sprinkle lime juice and salt and eat them just like that. When I tasted a bit, they seemed bland and tasteless to me, which is not bad.
The majority of things that don’t have a particular flavor are adaptable and have multiple uses.

In my first attempt to introduce avocados to Keto Lifestyle, I used them to make a Keto Avocado Garlic Chutney.
You can use the relish or chutney to add some spiciness to your eggs, eat them plain, or even grind them into a fine paste and use it as the sauce.

It is said that once, when the Mughal emperor Shah Jahan fell ill, his hakims recommended that he eat a dish which was spicy and flavourful, yet easy to digest. Thus was invented the chaat — built on a foundation of lentils and pulses, but finished with a dribble of spicy mint and coriander chutney and sweet-sour date and tamarind chutney. The last two ingredients — the chutneys — were what gave chaat its name, since both are said to have originated from the Sanskrit word chaatni — which means “to lick” — Indian Express.
By the way, I loved the chutney, and now I am planning to use the leftover avocado in a dessert.
