Granny's
Crab and Avocado Enchiladas
1/4 cup Chopped onion -- finely Chopped
1/4 cup Black olives -- chopped
1/4 cup Fresh mushrooms -- sliced
2 tbsp Butter
1 lb Crab meat -- fresh or Frozen
1 Avocado -- mashed
1 1/2 cup Sour cream -- divided
1 tsp Lemon juice
3 dash Tabasco sauce
12 Tortillas
Peanut oil -- hot
1 cup Cheddar cheese -- grated
Saute onion, chopped olives and
mushrooms in butter. Remove from heat and stir in crabmeat, avocado
mixed with 1 cup sour cream, lemon juice and Tabasco sauce. Dip each
tortilla into hot oil and drain on absorbent paper.
Fill each tortilla with some of the crab mixture, roll and place
seam-side down in buttered 9 by 11 inch casserole. Cover with
remaining sour cream and sprinkle with cheese. Bake at 350 for 20
minutes and serve immediately.
Cooked, chopped shrimp may be substituted for crab.
Perfection is finally attained not when there is no longer
anything to add but when there is no longer anything to take away, when a body
has been stripped down to its nakedness.
