Then make 40 small balls of dough, and carefully put them in a pan of hot oil (160°) frying in batches of 10 until they are golden.

    STEP 2

    For the dip, blend the avocado in a food processor with the tabasco, mustard, Worcester sauce, lemon juice, salt and pepper until creamy. Pour into a bowl then top with the chopped red chilli. Serve the dumplings garnished with grated Grana Padano Riserva and lemon zest with the avocado dip on the side.
