Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Grill the Ciabatta

    Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium heat. Place the ciabatta slices on the grill and toast for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and have grill marks.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Avocado

    While the bread is grilling, cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a bowl. Mash the avocado with a fork and season with salt and pepper to taste.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Dish

    Spread the mashed avocado evenly over the grilled ciabatta slices. Top with cooked quinoa, crushed pumpkin seeds, and slices of French radish.

  4. 4

    Garnish

    Sprinkle egg bottarga on top and drizzle with extra virgin olive oil for added flavor.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve immediately while the ciabatta is warm and the toppings are fresh.
