Sautéed Mushroom Toast with Avocado and Feta

Yields: 1

Preparation time: 10 mins

Cooking time: 10 mins

Ingredients

  • 200g mixed mushrooms (portobello, chestnut, oyster), roughly chopped
  • 2 thick slices dark rye or sourdough bread
  • 1 ripe avocado
  • 50g feta cheese, crumbled
  • 1 ripe tomato, sliced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • Fresh thyme or parsley
  • Salt, pepper and chilli flakes
  • Splash of soy sauce
  • Black olives to garnish

Directions

  • Heat the butter and olive oil together in a wide frying pan over high heat. Add the mushrooms in a single layer — don’t stir immediately, let them get colour for 2-3 minutes.
  • Add the garlic, thyme, a splash of soy sauce and season with salt, pepper and chilli flakes. Toss and cook for a further 2-3 minutes until the mushrooms are golden and any liquid has evaporated.
  • Toast the bread until it has good colour. Place on the plate.
  • Halve the avocado, remove the stone, and fan or slice onto the plate alongside the toast.
  • Pile the sautéed mushrooms high on the toast. Arrange the tomato slices alongside and scatter crumbled feta over the tomato. Add olives to garnish.
  • Finish with a drizzle of olive oil, a crack of black pepper, and fresh herbs.
