Persea schiedeana or in common name Avocado, a nice shot here of a tender oily fruit.
There are many different avocado speccies around the world. Note that the cultivars named Lyon, Murrieta Green, Mexicola Grande, Hass & Jim are among the best. The Hass is copper brownish in colour and the Jim is elongated with long neck like the one seen here.
A good way to eat them is crushed trough a fine strainer, add some green lemon juice, fresh aneth leaves and some sour cream and make a cream out of it. Slightly salt and pepper, fill in a wide open wine glass and add some big prawns that you stick in the avocado cream with the tails showing ot of the glass. Put in the fridge for an hour and serve as a cold appetizer with a slice of lemon cut in and riding on the edge of the glas.
Buon appetitio !

Jacky, Nice one! Just noticed that light source is on top left, so frame's shadow should have been on the right side. ;)
