THE TAHINI CREAMY I love the sesame magic of tahini, a nourishing and natural paste that’s indulgent but healthy drizzled over avocado. This gorgeous vegan toast is so easy to make, it should be part of everyone’s weekly self-care routine. INGREDIENTS 3 avocados
For the tahini cream:
6 thick slices of good-quality whole wheat bread
100g tahini
Extra-virgin olive oil
25ml water
To garnish (optional): pomegranate seeds, basil cress, edible flowers
Juice from ½ lemon Optional: 1 garlic clove, peeled and grated Sea salt and pepper Chilli flakes to taste
EQUIPMENT RECOMMENDED Food processor or blender
METHOD 1 Cut the avocados in half, remove the pit and peel off the skin. Make 6 avocado roses (see p.11). 2 Meanwhile, make the tahini cream by mixing all the ingredients together in a food processor to create a super creamy and silky spread, adding more water if necessary. If you don’t have a food processor, you can whisk this mixture by hand. The texture will not be as smooth but it will still be delicious.

3 Heat the olive oil in a 10-inch or 12-inch skillet over medium heat. Fry the bread slices until brown and crispy, flipping and cooking both sides. If it’s easier, you can pop them in the toaster instead. 4 Top the toasted bread with the avocado roses and tahini cream. If using, garnish with pomegranate seeds, basil cress and edible flowers.
