Cook time: 10 minutes

Total time: 20 minutes

Servings: 1

Ingredients:

2 slices of sourdough bread

3 slice emmental cheese / vegan cheese

1 avocado

30 g rocket

20 g butter / vegan butter

salt & pepper

Recipe:

  1. Slice the avocado and set aside. Meanwhile, heat a frying pan over medium/high heat and melt the butter.

  2. Brush the two slices of bread with melted butter and lay in the pan. Toast until crispy and golden on one side. Reduce the heat, and flip the slices of bread to the other side. Add the avocado on top of one of the slices of bread, season with salt and pepper, and cover with a couple of cheese slices. Cover the pan with a lid or with a baking tray to create steam and leave the cheese to melt for 4-5 minutes.

  3. Finish the dish: Remove the lid, turn off the heat and carefully transfer to a plate. Add some rocket leaves and top with the second slice of bread; it should be toasty and golden. Cut in half and eat immediately.
