Avocado, Onion and Caper Toasts

Description

Suitable for both special occasions and everyday meals. 1. Thinly slice the onion. Coarsely chop the capers. In a bowl, mix the onion, lemon juice, capers, olive oil, and 1/4 teaspoon salt and pepper. Let stand briefly until the onion softens slightly, about 10 minutes. Meanwhile, toast the bread slices until crisp. 2. In another bowl, mix the lemon zest, avocado, and 1/8 teaspoon salt until smooth and puréed. 3. Spread half the avocado mixture on one slice of toast and top with half the onion mixture. If desired, add smoked trout or egg. Repeat with the remaining ingredients and serve right away. Serve the appetizer at the table.
