Directions

  1. 1. Halve the avocados, remove the stones (pits), then peel off the skins. It is best to use your fingers to avoid damaging the flesh, but if the avocados aren't quite ripe you will have to cut away the steins with a knife.
  2. 2. Cut the flesh into slices and place in four individual, shallow, flameproof dishes.
  3. 3. Spoon over the passata, sprinkle with the oregano and season lightly.
  4. 4. Lay the Mozzarella on top,
  5. 5. Preheat the grill (broiler). Remove the grill rack and lay the dishes in the pan, then grill (broil) until the cheese melts and bubbles. Do not overheat
