    Aussie Avocado SmashPrep Time: 5 minutesCook Time: 2 minutes (for toast)Serves: 2
    Ingredients:- 1 ripe avocado- 1/2 lemon, juiced- Salt and pepper to taste- 50g feta cheese, crumbled- 2 thick slices of sourdough bread- 1 clove of garlic, peeled- Optional toppings: chili flakes, mixed seeds

    Instructions:

    1. Cut the avocado in half, remove the stone, and scoop the flesh into a bowl.
    2. Add lemon juice to the avocado to prevent browning.
    3. Using a fork, roughly mash the avocado, leaving some chunks for texture.
    4. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
    5. Gently fold in the crumbled feta cheese.
    6. Toast the sourdough bread until golden brown.
    7. Lightly rub the toasted bread with the garlic clove.
    8. Generously spread the avocado mixture on the toast.
    9. If desired, top with chili flakes for some heat or mixed seeds for extra crunch.

    Chef Tony's Tips:- For perfectly ripe avocados, give them a gentle squeeze. They should yield to soft pressure but not feel mushy.- Don't over-mash the avocado - you want some texture in your smash.- The garlic rub on the toast is subtle but adds a fantastic depth of flavor.- Experiment with toppings! Try cherry tomatoes, radish slices, or a poached egg for variety.

    Enjoy your little slice of Australia, mate!
