Ingredients
for the toasts
- 8 to 10 slices Garlic bread (whole wheat) or baguette or french loaf or whole wheat bread
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil for brushing or as needed
- 1 garlic clove halved
for the avocado filling
- 1 avocado - medium to large
- 1 garlic clove minced or finely chopped, small to medium size
- ½ teaspoon dried oregano or add as required, opt for preferred herbs instead
- ¼ teaspoon crushed black pepper or add as required
- ¼ teaspoon lemon juice or add as required
- salt as required
Instructions
- Firstly slice a garlic loaf or a french bread.
- Then heat a griddle or tawa or skillet. Place the loaf slices on it. Toast them on a low to medium flame.
- Whilst the bread is getting toasted, we prepare the avocado filling. Take an avocado. Rinse if you want. Then give a cut at the center moving around the entire avocado.
- We want the avocado in two halves. Remove the seed.
- With a spoon, scoop out the entire avocado flesh, which is like butter and gets removed easily.
- Place the scooped avocado flesh on chopping board and then chop. Or you can mash the avocado pulp in a bowl.
- Add the chopped avocado in a mixing bowl. Also add 1 small to medium garlic clove (finely chopped or minced)
- Season with ½ teaspoon oregano (or add as required), crushed black pepper (as required), salt and a few drops of lemon juice. The lemon juice prevents the discoloration.
- Mix well and keep aside.
- Once the slices are toasted, then brush some extra virgin olive on top.
- Halve a garlic and rub the garlic on all the bread slices.
- Now gently place the avocado filling on the toasted bread slices. If you want you can even sprinkle some red chili flakes.
- Serve avocado toast as soon as you make them.
