Preparation time: 10 mins

Cook time: 0 mins

Serves 1

Ingredients

2 Slices of Hovis® Rustic seeded Bloomer
1 Avocado
1 Burrata Cheese or Mozzarella
Fresh Basil leaves
1 Big tomato
Salt & Ground black pepper
Olive Oil
Butter

Tip

Place fresh basil leaves on the burrata and drizzle with balsamic glaze for sweetness and acidity.

Method

Toast 2 slices of Hovis^® Rustic Seeded Bloomer and spread a light layer of butter on either side. Cut one ripe avocado in half and slice one half into long strips. Place these across one slice of toast. Then add some fresh basil leaves on top before slicing your big tomatoes up. Add two pieces of sliced tomatoes on top of the basil leaves.

Hands slicing one half of an avocado lengthwise, with a small knife, on a wooden chopping board, with the seeded half resting on the right.

Time for the burrata cheese! The burrata can be swapped for mozzarella if isn't available at your local supermarket. Drain the burrata (or mozzarella) in a small strainer and then add either the whole thing or cut it in half, depending on how much you would like. The second half can be used for a second sandwich. This should now ooze nicely as you place on top. Now add a sprinkle of salt and pepper before finally adding a drizzle of olive oil.
