Method

  1. Toast pistachios in a dry pan for 3 minutes until colored; chop coarsely.
  2. Blitz avocado, plain Greek yogurt, cocoa powder, vanilla extract and low carb sweetener in a mini chopper until smooth, with no lumps. It looks paler and greener than chocolate; chilling darkens it.
  3. Beat in lime juice.
  4. Press parchment paper flat onto the mousse’s surface before refrigerating. Scatter pistachios over only at serving. Keep two days with paper flat on the surface; afterward, the color dulls. Serve cold with a handful of strawberries.
Chef’s tipUse a ripe, soft avocado. A hard one comes out lumpy and tastes green, not of chocolate.
