- 1/2 tsp garlic paste or 1 clove minced garlic
- 1/4 - 1/2 tsp Cayenne or red chili powder
- Salt to taste
- 3 tbsp Fresh basil leaves or dried crushed basil

Instructions
- Slice through the avocado length wise, with a knife, until you feel the pit in it's center.
- Remove the pit. Scoop out and slice or smash.
- To the smash, add lemon juice, salt, garlic and cayenne pepper. Mix well. Keep it aside.
- Pluck, wash and chop the basil leaves.
- Wash and slice the San Marzano plum tomatoes into halves. You could use cherry tomatoes as well. If both aren't available, use regular tomatoes. In this case, deseed and chop them.
- Having done the "mise en place" (French for prepping) toast your bread slices in a toaster (on a medium level)
- Once they pop out, slice the toast into two halves. Spread the avocado evenly. Next place the tomatoes and basil.
- Your Avocado toasts are ready! Enjoy with a hot cuppa tea/ coffee or with your choice of drink. Bon Appetite :)
Notes
- Dried crush basil can also be used if fresh isn't available.
- Any topping can be used. It entirely depends on what you feel like eating.
