avocado garlic toast recipe with step by step photos – easy and a quick breakfast recipe of avocado garlic toast. the recipe gets done within 15 minutes.
i usually buy 2 to 3 avocados every week. either we have them plain drizzled with a bit of lemon juice, black salt and extra virgin olive oil or i make these quick toasts. i also make avocado milkshake, guacamole sandwich and guacamole recipe at times.
avocado is also called as butter fruit. in hindi its known as makhan phal. if you have not tried avocado, then do try. chances are that you will like it. always use a ripe avocado for any recipe that you make with it. when you press the avocado, it should not feel firm and tight. if it feels firm, then the avocado is not ripe but raw. in a ripe avocado, when you press the skin, it feels soft. i usually buy unripe ones and wrap them with a loosely woven cotton napkin and allow them to ripe on the counter. it take some days for them to ripen. here is a detailed post on huffintonpost on how to check the ripeness in an avocado and how to store them.
for the toasts, i have used whole wheat garlic bread. though you can use any bread or a french loaf or baguette. these toasts make for a healthy breakfasts and keeps you full for some time.
