Ingredients- Whole grain bread (sliced) – 2 slices
- Ripe avocado – 1/2
- Sliced salami – 2 slices
- Salad greens – 1/2 handful
- Fresh lemon juice – 1 tsp
- Salt (or herbed salt) – a pinch
- Black pepper – a pinch
- Paprika powder – 1/2 tsp
- Balsamic glaze (optional)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Begin by preparing all your ingredients. Lightly toasting the bread in a pan or air fryer will enhance its crispiness and flavor. (For air fryer, toast at 180°C for about 3 minutes.) Using herbed salt instead of plain salt and pepper can add a delightful aromatic touch.
Step 2
Carefully prepare half of the ripe avocado. Gently scoop out the flesh from the skin using a spoon or knife, being careful not to mash it.
Step 3
Slice the avocado flesh into even, bite-sized pieces. Aim for a consistent thickness to ensure a pleasant texture and appealing presentation on the sandwich.
Step 4
Drizzle the fresh lemon juice over the sliced avocado. This not only helps prevent browning but also adds a bright, zesty flavor.
Step 5
Arrange a generous handful of salad greens evenly over each slice of toasted whole grain bread. Next, artfully layer the lemon-kissed avocado slices, overlapping them slightly for visual appeal.
Step 6
Tuck the folded salami slices in between or on top of the avocado. The savory, salty notes of the salami beautifully complement the creamy avocado.
Step 7
Season the sandwich with a pinch of salt (or herbed salt), freshly ground black pepper, and a sprinkle of paprika powder for a touch of color and flavor. (Feel free to adjust or omit the salt and pepper according to your preference.)
Step 8
For an extra touch of gourmet flair, drizzle balsamic glaze in a zigzag pattern over the top or serve it on the side. Your delicious and beautiful Avocado Salami Open Sandwich is now ready to enjoy!
