Avocado Ice Cream, Brazil
In Brazil, they make amazing ice cream from any tropical fruit - pineapple, banana, mango, guava, and even avocado. To prepare the dessert, the avocado's oily pulp is whipped together with condensed milk and lime juice.
Recipe
In a blender, chop together the avocado pulp, lime juice and condensed milk until smooth. Try the taste. If necessary, add more condensed milk or sugar and mix again with a blender.
* When cooking any ice cream, you should always keep in mind that in frozen form it will seem less sweet than in unfrozen.
Whip cream until soft peaks and mix with mashed avocado and condensed milk, adding cream in portions and gently stirring from the bottom up.
Spread the resulting mass into ice cream makers (or any silicone molds, you can take muffin tins), insert sticks, send at least 4 hours in the freezer.
Thanks to condensed milk, large ice crystals in this ice cream are not formed, so there is no need for an ice cream maker here and you do not need to mix it during freezing.
Cake Drop Japan
It contains nothing but agar-agar and pure spring water. To give a drop of flavors, dessert is served with maple syrup and soy flour. Experienced chefs advise: it is important that the jelly is completely transparent, otherwise the dessert will look like silicone implants.
Recipe
1. Agar-agar diluted with mineral water and set on a small fire. While stirring, bring to a boil and let simmer another five minutes.
Pour into the form and send in the fridge.
2. Fry the flour in a dry frying pan until golden brown.
3. Put the “Raindrop” cake on a plate, next to pour a little wedge syrup and spread the fried flour.
To form a dessert was flawless, you need to take the “right” capacity. Silicone mold fits perfectly. Transparent cake “drop of water” will be, if you prepare the water - first boil and cool, and then “work” with it, according to the recipe. Do not replace agar with gelatin! Even if you are a virtuoso in the preparation of gelatin-based jelly and you can make any gelatinous PP dessert, for example, cottage marshmallow, for the “raindrop”, stock up with agar-agar. Only this way taste, aroma, transparency, consistency, smooth surface and color of the unique treat will be perfect!

Maple Leaves in Batter, Japan
"Momiji tempura", or maple leaves in batter is a very popular seasonal snack in Japan. The collected leaves are carefully washed, and then they are placed in barrels of salt water, where they will be for a year. Then they are dipped in batter, consisting of flour, sesame seeds and sugar, and fried in a large amount of oil.
To begin with, pedantic Japanese collect and wash the leaves very carefully. Then, they put them in special barrels of salt water, where the leaves should be within a year. As you can see, the cooking process is delayed for quite a long time. Then, they are taken out, dipped in batter (or breaded) and roasted in large quantities of hot oil. A batter (breading) is a mixture of flour, sugar and sesame seeds.
In general, I think that this dish has only the taste of the batter, and the leaf serves to give an unusual shape to the sweetness. If there is a very big desire, I think you can experiment with the leaves of the usual, familiar to us maple.
Fried Milk, Spain
Fried milk is a Spanish dessert made from milk, thickened with flour, and then roasted. When served, it is coated with icing and sprinkled with ground cinnamon or powdered sugar.
To prepare 4-6 servings you will need:
eggs - 6 pcs
flour (corn and pyshenichnaya) - 60 g spoon
vanilla sugar and powder - 120 g and 100 g
fresh milk - half a liter
cinnamon - 1 tsp
To cook roasted milk, it must be thoroughly heated in a saucepan. Parallel to this, eggs are ground with vanilla and sugar, both types of flour are added and mixed thoroughly.
Now pour the boiling milk into the resulting mixture and cook for 5 minutes, stirring constantly. As a result of such manipulations a thick and dense cream is obtained.
If you can’t reach the right consistency, you can add some more corn flour.
After this milk cream must be passed through a sieve, which will get rid of lumps. The ready mix is poured into a well-oiled baking dish and remains in it until it thickens.
It remains only to cut the cream into several pieces, roll in the breading of flour and eggs and fry on both sides in a heated pan.
Before serving, do not forget to sprinkle the resulting dessert with powdered sugar.
