Description
Crispy toast with creamy avocado and an easily poached egg
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 slice of good quality bread (I use sourdough)
- 1 egg
- ½ an avocado
- salt and pepper, to taste
- lemon juice, optional
Instructions
- Place a piece of plastic wrap in a small bowl or coffee cup and rub the inside with a drop of olive oil.
- Crack an egg into the bowl (and plastic) and tie the plastic with a string above the egg.
- Place in a bowl of simmering water and let it poach for about 4 minutes.
- Meanwhile, you toast a big piece of (good-quality) bread.
- Smash the flesh of half the avocado with a fork until it’s a creamy spread. I like to leave some chunks. Add salt, pepper and some lemon to taste.
- Spread the avocado on the toast and place the poached egg (after you’ve removed the plastic, of course) on top.
- Eat.
