½ cup raw cashews
1 cup water
¼ cup basil, whole leaves

Fresh ground black pepper (optional)

While you’re waiting for the water to boil, to a high speed blender add cashews, water, basil, and garlic. Blend into a smooth, creamy consistency, approximately 1 minute.
Poor the cashew cream into a medium size pot over medium heat. Add the lemon juice, olive oil, salt and pepper, stir. When the cream sauce starts to bubble turn the heat down to low, keep warm and stir occasionally.

Heat extra virgin olive oil in a pan with deep sides over medium-high heat. When you insert the back of a wooden spoon into the oil and bubbles appear you will know the oil is hot enough. At this point turn the heat back down to medium.
Place a slice of avocado on the bottom corner of each won ton wrapper. Sprinkle with a small pinch of sea salt, and place a strip of jalapeno on top of the avocado chunk.
Place a slice of avocado on the bottom corner of each won ton wrapper. Sprinkle with a small pinch of sea salt, and place a strip of jalapeno on top of the avocado chunk.
Fold the bottom corner of the won ton wrapper over the avocado. Roll halfway, and then fold the sides of the won ton wrapper towards the center.
Using a pastry brush or your finger, moisten the remaining corner of the won ton wrapper with water. Roll up tightly.
Repeat the process for all 16 avocado jalapeno poppers.
Cook the avocado jalapeno poppers in oil, 4 or 5 at time being careful not to overcrowd the pot. Cook 30 ~ 60 seconds per side to achieve a nice golden brown color.
