1 slice of your favourite toasted bread
2-3 tablespoons ricotta
½ teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
½ teaspoon fresh lemon juice
A squeeze of fresh lemon juice for the avo
½ ripe avocado
1 tablespoon crispy chilli oil
A drizzle of hot honey
Micro herbs, to garnish
Flaky sea salt
In a small bowl, combine the ricotta, lemon zest and ½ teaspoon of lemon juice until nicely combined.
Remove the skin from the avocado and squeeze over a little fresh lemon juice to prevent browning while adding a lovely citrus freshness.
Place the avocado flat-side down and slice it thinly. Gently fan the slices out on a chopping board.
Spread the lemon ricotta generously over the toasted bread.
Using a large knife or spatula, carefully lift the fanned avocado and place it on top of the ricotta.
Drizzle over the hot honey, followed by the crispy chilli oil.
Finish with a sprinkle of flaky sea salt and a scattering of micro herbs.
