Make Ahead
Avocado-Coriander, Tofu and Tomato on Danish Rye Bread
- Serves 2 (or thereabouts)
Author Notes
I train for swimming two hours a day, six sessions a week. When I get home, I'm more than a little hungry - and this is one of my go-to things to eat. Not only is it nutritious and filling, it's yummy enough to serve at, say, a dinner party without them even realizing it's the same thing you stuff into your mouth greedily at 9:45pm every other night of the week. The avo-coriander dip is delicious on it's own, but when i first made this i only had about a teaspoon left from making it earlier in the week, and the tofu added a welcome protein hit. —Lucy
What You'll Need
Ingredients
- Avocado-Coriander Dip
-
1/2
a ripe Avocado
-
1/2 cup
lightly packed fresh coriander leaves
-
juice of one lime (or to taste)
-
1 teaspoon
salt (or to taste)
-
Olive oil as needed
- The Rest (Rye Bread, assembly, ect)
-
2 pieces
Danish Rye Bread (this varies in size, the slices i get are about palm-sized)
-
1/2 packet
silken tofu (approx. just over 1/2 cup)
-
All of your avocado-coriander dip
-
1 handful
Roughly chopped walnuts
-
2
large tomatoes, thinly sliced
Directions
- Avocado-Coriander Dip
- Put all ingredients besides oil in a blender and blend until smooth. Add oil only if needed - if your avocado is ripe enough, you should be ok. For me, lime is more important than salt in this, but like in the case of hummus, everyone to their own; feel free to add or reduce salt and lime as you please, just remember this taste is going to be toned down a little by the tofu later on, so stronger is better than weaker!
- The Rest (Rye Bread, assembly, ect)
- Blend your silken tofu until smooth, then add your avocado dip and blend until combined. Taste and adjust seasoning - if it's too strong, just add more tofu, but I prefer mine strong as the Rye bread also has a distinctive flavour.
- Spread this tofu mix on your Rye Bread - be generous! Sprinkle with the walnuts, top with the slices of tomato and serve.
