Are avocado and butter fruit one and the same?
Are avocado and butter fruit one and the same??? They have different skin colors though. Butter fruit is darker... I tried butter fruit milk shake at a fruit shop and it was delicious. I tried to make the same thing at home and it turned out bitter!!! We had to throw away the whole thing.. I would love to try it again... Any suggestions here???
Thanks
Found this info for you..... hope it helps!
Butterfruit, or safou – also called bush mango – has been compared to avocado. It's an oil-producing fruit with a large seed and plumpy texture. Despite its somewhat sour taste, it is quite popular in parts of West and Central Africa, including the DRC, Benin, Nigeria and Central African Republic
"It looks like an oval plum – with a shiny beautiful color," Guyer explains.
"The trees have dark green leaves, and the fruit is copious and hangs down. So, you have a wonderful visual impression. We really enjoyed the season when they came into fruition, and I ate them with great gusto. There are people who prepare it as a snack on a roadside grill [where they are roasted]."

Butter Fruit Milk Shake or Avocado Milk Shake
Butter Fruit or Avocado – 1
Milk – 2 glasses
Sugar – 2 Tbsp
How to Prepare:
Cut the butter fruit into two pieces; discard the big seed from it. Extract the inner greenish yellow pulp from the fruit with the help of spoon. The green outer covering should be discarded as well.
Add milk and sugar to the Butter fruit pulp and grind it in a mixer grinder. Keep the milk shake in a refrigerator for 2 hr. Serve cool.
Butter fruit milk shake is one of most popular fruit shakes in Karnataka because of its great taste.
Notes:
Butter Fruit is grown in Coorg in Karnataka. It looks greenish and its pulp is almost greenish yellow. You will find this fruit only in the winter season from November to February/March. If the greenish outer cover is turning brown then don’t purchase it. This fruit costs a bit, but once you taste this fruit with sugar or prepare milk shake, you will feel like having it regularly. This fruit pulp/juice by itself is tasteless and cannot be had without adding sugar to it.
