Step-by-step method

At a glance

You're putting together elegant canapés that come together in just 14 minutes of prep time. The trickiest bit is getting that avocado pit out cleanly, but once you've mashed the flesh and hit it with lime juice to keep it looking vibrant, it's smooth sailing from there—just layer your spread, avocado slices, smoked salmon, and dill onto toasted baguette pieces.

Preparing the avocado

Cut the avocado in half lengthwise. Slice carefully, as inside there's a large hard pit that you'll need to cut the flesh around. If your avocado is nicely ripe, this should be easy, and the pit should come out without any trouble.

Tip

When I make this recipe exactly to the quantities listed, I use one avocado for the spread and slice the second avocado, laying the slices between the salmon and the baguette slice with the spread.

Drizzling with lime

Scoop out the first avocado with a spoon and blend or mash it with a fork. Don't forget to drizzle it with a little lime juice and mix well. Carefully cut and scoop out the second avocado, then slice it.

Seasoning

Add soft cheese or bread spread to the mashed avocado, whichever you prefer. I sometimes mix both together if I happen to have both open in the fridge. Season with salt and pepper and mix thoroughly.

About this recipe

This avocado spread is simple, quick, and absolutely perfect. Once you've halved the avocado and mashed the flesh, drizzle it with a little lime juice so the beautiful green colour doesn't turn an unappealing grey and the avocado doesn't turn bitter.
