4 long slices sourdough bread
olive oil
1 clove garlic, peeled
2 avocados

1 green apple, julienned
small handful mint leaves, chopped

METHOD
Preheat the grill to its highest setting.
Brush the bread lightly with olive oil and grill both sides until golden. Rub one side with the raw clove of garlic.
