Ingredients: 2 medium beets, peeled and halved; 1 teaspoon olive oil, plus oil for frying tortillas; Sea salt and black pepper; 2 corn tortillas, cut into rough triangles; 1 ripe avocado, halved and pitted; 1 lime; 1 small garlic clove, minced; 2 tablespoons heavy cream; 1/2 cup pomegranate molasses; 1 tablespoon honey; 2 tablespoons pomegranate arils; Small handful of cilantro leaves

A deconstructed play on Mexican tradition: shards of twice-fried corn tortilla alternate with paper-thin roasted beet slices, topped with a burnt-edge charred avocado mousse, and finished with a crisp pomegranate molasses reduction. This appetizer surprises with its layers of texture, color, and technique—each element is restaurant-quality but the sum is genuinely unexpected.
