Steps
- Toast4 minwell past goldenthe bread darker than habit suggests — it is about to carry a heavy wet topping, and pale toast folds under it in a minute; the deep toast is the plate as much as the food
- Mash3 minin a bowl, coarse, seasoned as you goavocado + lime + salt with a fork, stopped while real pieces remain — the seasoning happens here because salt on top of avocado sits on top; salt mashed through it seasons every bite, and the lime is holding the green as much as adding flavor
- Top2 minavocado, then oil, then heatthe mash spread to the crust's edge, olive oil in a thin thread, chili flakes scattered — edge-to-edge coverage is the difference between avocado toast and toast near avocado; eat immediately, this dish has a ten-minute lifespan and everyone knows it
