Adding cream cheese to your avocado can boost the flavour (Image: Getty)

The chef, who has more than 545k followers on TikTok, says that this cheap condiment is the perfect way to make your avocado toast instantly taste so much creamier and more delicious.

Cream cheese is a real kitchen staple, whether it's used on sandwiches or in baking, and it's affordable too, with a tub costing as little as 95p from Sainsbury's.

It has a mild salty flavour, so it won't overpower your avocado toast, but what it will do is add a luxurious creaminess that'll make your homemade dish taste every bit as good as a restaurant's.

Then, add it to a bowl, and mash it up with 40g of your favourite cream cheese.

Season with salt and pepper like you normally would, and give it another good mix. Meanwhile, toast your bread - sourdough works great with avocado.

When the toast is ready, spread on a little butter just to give it some extra flavour.

Noa described it as 'literally the best thing I've ever eaten', and people in the video's comments were in firm agreement. One person said: "This looks so good and healthy!"

Another wrote: "My son and I made it with cream cheese just now as per your suggestion! It was amazing! Thanks for the tip."

And a third commented: "Did this but added lemon juice and honey, so good!"
