    Aussie Avocado SmashPrep Time: 5 minutesCook Time: 2 minutes (for toast)Serves: 2
    Ingredients:- 1 ripe avocado- 1/2 lemon, juiced- Salt and pepper to taste- 50g feta cheese, crumbled- 2 thick slices of sourdough bread- 1 clove of garlic, peeled- Optional toppings: chili flakes, mixed seeds

    Instructions:

    1. Cut the avocado in half, remove the stone, and scoop the flesh into a bowl.
    2. Add lemon juice to the avocado to prevent browning.
    3. Using a fork, roughly mash the avocado, leaving some chunks for texture.
    4. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
    5. Gently fold in the crumbled feta cheese.
    6. Toast the sourdough bread until golden brown.
    7. Lightly rub the toasted bread with the garlic clove.
    8. Generously spread the avocado mixture on the toast.
    9. If desired, top with chili flakes for some heat or mixed seeds for extra crunch.

    Chef Tony's Tips:- For perfectly ripe avocados, give them a gentle squeeze. They should yield to soft pressure but not feel mushy.- Don't over-mash the avocado - you want some texture in your smash.- The garlic rub on the toast is subtle but adds a fantastic depth of flavor.- Experiment with toppings! Try cherry tomatoes, radish slices, or a poached egg for variety.

    Enjoy your little slice of Australia, mate!

    Speedy Spaghetti Aglio e OlioPrep Time: 2 minutesCook Time: 8 minutesServes: 2
    Ingredients:- 200g spaghetti- 4-5 cloves of garlic, thinly sliced- 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil- 1/2 tsp red chili flakes (adjust to taste)- 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped- Salt for pasta water- Grated Parmesan cheese (optional)

    Instructions:

    1. Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add a generous handful of salt.
    2. Add spaghetti to the boiling water and cook for about 8 minutes, or until just shy of al dente.
    3. While pasta cooks, heat olive oil in a large pan over medium-low heat.
    4. Add sliced garlic and chili flakes to the oil. Cook gently until garlic just starts to turn golden.
    5. When pasta is nearly done, use tongs to transfer it directly from the pot to the pan with garlic and oil. Don't drain the pasta water.
    6. Toss pasta with the garlic oil mixture, adding a splash of pasta water if needed to create a silky sauce.
    7. Turn off heat and add chopped parsley. Toss to combine.
    8. Serve immediately, topped with grated Parmesan if desired.

    Chef Tony's Tips:- Don't overcook the garlic – it should be golden, not brown.- The starchy pasta water is key to creating a silky sauce, so don't be shy about adding a splash.- For a richer flavor, finish the dish with a drizzle of high-quality extra virgin olive oil.

    Buon appetito!
