Preparation

Step 1
Cut avocados in half; remove skin and pits. Slice each half lengthwise into one-quarter-inch-thick slices. You need 20 slices. Brush with lemon juice to prevent darkening. Reserve leftovers for other uses.
Step 2
Put two slices of the avocado together to form a circle. Fill center with one tablespoon sour cream. Sprinkle with one-half teaspoon chives.
Step 3
Cover this almost completely with one tablespoon red caviar, leaving a touch of sour cream showing. Sprinkle with a little more chives and spoon one-half teaspoon black caviar down the center. Continue until all of the slices are used.
