No need for fancy equipment or long hours in the kitchen. Here’s how to do it in a few simple steps:
-
Fruit preparation
Take a ripe avocado. Cut it in half, remove the pit, then scoop out the flesh with a spoon. Don’t worry if the avocado is a little bruised: this is the perfect opportunity to give it a second life.
-
Crushing
Using a fork, mash the flesh until you get a smooth paste. The smoother the texture, the more effective the oil extraction will be.
-
Gentle cooking
Pour the batter into a skillet and heat over very low heat. Stir regularly. Little by little, you will see an oil form on the surface, like a light golden veil being released.
-
Filtration
Pour the mixture through a clean cloth or fine-mesh strainer to separate the oil from the pulp. Squeeze gently to extract every drop of this precious liquid.
