Method

Bring a deep pan of water up to a boil and blanch the chard for 1 minute, then quickly sieve it and run it under the cold tap. This will lightly cook it while retaining the vibrant colours.

Make your smashed avocado: slice the avocado into a bowl with the lime juice, Aleppo chilli flakes and ground fennel, and smash it all up with a fork. Season to taste.
