When you think of a toast it’s usually in terms of classic white bread filled with ham and cheese, great for a quick lunch. But sometimes it can be a revelation if you change the filling, and customize your toast sandwich with other tasty and, perhaps, unusual ingredients. In this case, the combination of beef carpaccio and crispy courgette is perfect for an out of the ordinary sandwich – and, moreover, we have made it yet more fragrant and delicious through the introduction of a fabulous cream of porcini and truffles: this lightly sweet mixture makes our sandwich pleasantly soft and tasty, transforming a rustic snack into an elegant meal!

Lightly toast some slices of bread. Spread them with the creamed porcini mushrooms and white truffle. Dress your carpaccio lightly with a little olive oil and salt and add them to the toast. Thinly slice the courgettes and dress with olive oil, lemon juice, salt and pepper – stir it all together so well coated. Add the courgettes to your toast. Make a sandwich by covering with another slice of toast, and enjoy.
