For the Salsa:

  3. Place the remaining flour mixture in a mixing bowl and stir in 1/4 cup water. Whisk well to create a batter.
  4. Heat a thin layer of oil in the saute pan, Dip the avocado slices into the batter and allow excess to drip off.
  5. Cook the coated avocado in the saute pan 1-3 minutes, until crispy. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.
  6. Heat the tortillas if desired, and fill with fish, avocado, pickled onions, mango pineapple salsa, and extra cilantro.
