SWEET AND SPICY AVOCADOS

1/4 cup butter
1/4 cup honey
1/4 cup catsup
2 tablespoons cider vinegar
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
Few drops hot pepper sauce
2 avocados
Fresh orange and pink grapefruit slices, optional
Fresh cilantro or herbs, optional

Combine butter, honey, catsup, vinegar, Worcestershire and pepper sauce in small saucepan and heat, stirring until smooth. Keep warm.

Halve, seed and skin avocados. Place cut-sides down on board and slice crosswise into crescents. Overlap slices on appetizer plates. Add orange and grapefruit slices to plates if desired.

Drizzle 2 tablespoons warmed sauce over each plate, allowing it to pool underneath avocado. Add a sprig of cilantro or fresh herb to each plate if desired.
