AVOCADO SESAME SOURDOUGH RECIPE
It doesn’t take much to turn an avocado into a simple meal. As a treat when I was young I would occasionally have half an avocado with its hollow filled with Worcestershire sauce. I thought that was the height of sophistication, but avocado with chilli and sesame seeds is even better. It’s great as a healthy, light breakfast or you could top it off with a sardine fillet if you wanted to make this even more substantial.

Instructions
- Season the bread with salt and pepper and drizzle with a little oil. Toast or griddle the bread until golden brown.
- Meanwhile, mix together the lemon zest, chilli flakes and sesame seeds with a pinch of salt and pepper.
- Quarter the avocados, removing the stone and peeling off the skin. Slice each quarter lengthways, leaving the slices joined at the top. Fan out each quarter and place 2 on a piece of toast, pushing down to make them stick.
- Squeeze a little lemon juice over the avocado, then sprinkle with the sesame seed mixture. Eat immediately while still warm.
HOW TO STONE AN AVOCADO
- Cut the avocado in half lengthways and then place the half with the stone still attached on a work surface. Chop into the stone with a sharp knife and you should be able to ease it out.
