  • Total Time: 10–15 minutes
  • Yield: 2 servings

Ingredients

Avocado

  • 2 ripe avocados, halved and sliced

Marinade

  • 3 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 1 tbsp sugar or honey
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 green onion, chopped
  • 1 tsp sesame seeds
  • 1 tbsp water

Instructions

  1. Prepare the marinade: In a bowl, combine soy sauce, sesame oil, sugar or honey, minced garlic, chopped green onion, sesame seeds, and water. Mix thoroughly to blend all the flavors.
  2. Marinate the avocado: Gently place the avocado slices into the marinade, ensuring each piece is well coated without breaking the delicate flesh.
  3. Let it soak: Allow the avocado to marinate for at least 10 to 15 minutes, so the flavors fully absorb into the fruit.
  4. Serve: Present the marinated avocado slices over warm rice or as a flavorful side dish to complement your meal.

Notes

  • Use firm-ripe avocados to prevent the slices from becoming too soft or mushy during marination.
  • Add chili flakes to the marinade if you prefer a spicy kick to the dish.
