Hass Avocados from New Zealand now available in India

Talking about the health benefits of New Zealand Avocado, celebrity Masterchef Kunal Kapur said, “New Zealand Hass avocados are an amazing healthy and versatile wholefood that contain the good fats needed to maintain a healthy heart. They interestingly blend with everyday Indian meals and the soft buttery texture and nutty flavour goes really well with many traditional dishes such as Bhel Puri and Tawa Pulao. They also blend seamlessly with curries”.

Avocados can be used at any time of the day and are a great way to add nutrition, flavour and colour to your favourite recipes.

Avocados are great at breakfast, lunch, dinner even desserts and snacks. Kunal Kapur, an avocado lover, showed guests at the event many ways of using avocado to create delicious and nutritious meals. 

Kapur encouraged Indians to enjoy the unique taste and health benefits of New Zealand avocados.

Chef Kunal Kapur added, “Avocados are a superfood that is hassle free to cook and blends with almost any Indian dish. The addition of New Zealand Hass avocados makes snacking colourful, healthy and meaningful. I especially enjoy an avocado right after a good run at the gym.”

Kapur said he loves making a New Zealand avocado and kiwi lassi to have with breakfast or lunch as it’s a quick and easy way to get a nutrient boost and it also helps with digestion.

“New Zealand Hass avocados are rich in fibre which is great for a healthy digestive system,” said he.

Avocados contain over 20 vitamins and minerals and are made up of proteins, good fats and carbohydrates. Kapur said they’re also cholesterol free. Not many people realise how amazing avocados taste when used in baking and desserts. Their creamy texture makes them perfect for ice cream and decadent sweet treats like chocolate avocado mousse.

“My recipe for New Zealand Avocado and Cheese Parantha makes an excellent choice for kid’s lunch boxes and is also a tasty breakfast option," he said.

“Adding some avocado to your meals throughout the day is a smart way to ensure you are getting some good nutrition in your diet.  New Zealand Hass avocados are also high in vitamin B6, which helps to maintain good energy levels through the day," Kapur said. 

“New Zealand avocados mature on the tree longer giving them a nutty flavour which goes well with salmon and chicken. It can also pair well with light, fresh flavours such as watermelon and the sweetness of strawberry and kiwifruit,” Kapur said..

New Zealand avocados are grown in a pristine environment with strong dedication from growers to produce a premium product.
