Avocado-Cucumber Tea Sandwiches with Dill & Mint
SERVES 6
For the Avocado Spread:
2 ripe avocados
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
½ teaspoon salt
½ cup chopped cucumber
2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint, plus extra for garnish
2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill, plus extra for garnish
For serving:
6 slices white bread
6 slices whole wheat bread
1 small cucumber, very thinly sliced
Remove the pit from the avocados and place in a food processor along with the lemon juice and salt. Purée until completely smooth. Add the cucumber and pulse until finely chopped. Add the mint and dill and pulse again to combine. You just want the herbs well incorporated into the mix, but not puréed.
Arrange the slices of bread on the counter (alternate so that half of the bottom slices are whole wheat and half are white). Spread the avocado mixture onto all 12 slices. Add a single layer of cucumber on the 6 slices. Now close each sandwich. Use a sharp knife to cut off the crusts. Be gentle, you don’t want to squish out the filling. Slice each sandwich into quarters, in triangles. Serve garnished with extra herbs.
Serve immediately :)
