Dilly Avocado Sauce

  1. Blend all ingredients until smooth, cover with plastic, and refrigerate until ready to serve. May be made up to an hour in advance.

Sauerkraut Pancakes

  1. Blend eggs, avocado, dill, caraway, salt and pepper. Mix well with the rest of the pancake ingredients. Form into 1-inch balls for appetizer size or 2-inch balls for side dish.
  2. Spray cooking oil in a 10 to12-inch nonstick skillet and turn to medium heat. Add the dough balls to the pan with plenty of room between each. Press the balls with your hand or a spatula to flatten into 1-inch tall discs.
  3. Cook for three minutes on the first side then flip and cook for 2-3 minutes until the pancakes are golden brown and warmed all the way through.
  4. Work in batches spraying a bit more cooking spray for each batch, as necessary.
  5. Serve while warm and crispy.

Serving Suggestion: Top with Avocado Dilly Sauce, avocado chunks and a spring of dill.

Beverage Pairing: Off dry Riesling
