Ingredients
- Radish greens, washed
- Avocado, mashed
- Bread, toasted
- Lemon juice
- Salt
- Pepper
Instructions
- Thoroughly wash the radish greens under cool running water, gently patting them dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels to remove excess moisture.
- Toast two slices of bread until golden brown and crispy, ensuring an even color and crunchy texture.
- Cut a ripe avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a small mixing bowl.
- Mash the avocado with a fork until it reaches a smooth, creamy consistency, adding a squeeze of fresh lemon juice to prevent browning and enhance flavor.
- Season the mashed avocado with a pinch of salt and freshly ground black pepper, mixing thoroughly to distribute the seasoning.
- Spread the seasoned mashed avocado evenly across the toasted bread slices, creating a thick, even layer.
- Gently tear or chop the radish greens into bite-sized pieces, ensuring they are clean and free from any tough stems.
- Arrange the radish greens on top of the avocado toast, creating a light, fresh green layer.
- Finish by drizzling a small amount of lemon juice over the greens and adding an additional light sprinkle of salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve immediately to enjoy the crisp toast, creamy avocado, and fresh radish greens at their peak flavor and texture.
Tips
- Choose ripe, but firm avocados for the best texture and flavor. A perfectly ripe avocado should yield slightly to gentle pressure.
- Use fresh, crisp radish greens for maximum nutrition and a peppery bite. If the greens seem wilted, refresh them in ice water for a few minutes.
- Toast your bread to a golden brown for optimal crunch - this provides a crucial textural contrast to the creamy avocado.
- Add the lemon juice not just for flavor, but to prevent the avocado from browning and to enhance the overall brightness of the dish.
- For an extra flavor boost, consider adding a light sprinkle of red pepper flakes or everything bagel seasoning on top of your finished toast.
