- 1 teaspoon wasabi
Toppings
- 1 avocado, sliced

- Tempura flakes add crunch but can be substituted with toasted panko breadcrumbs if unavailable.
- If you prefer a milder wasabi flavor, reduce the amount or substitute with wasabi paste or powder.
- This recipe is best served immediately to maintain the crispness of the tempura flakes.
