Avocado Toast with Poached Eggs

Ingredients:

• 4 slices of whole-grain or sourdough bread
• 2 ripe avocados, peeled and pit removed (approximately 400g or 2 cups)
• 10ml (2 tsp) lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 15ml (1 tbsp) olive oil
• 4 large eggs
• 30ml (2 tbsp) white vinegar
• Optional: red pepper flakes, for garnish
• Optional: fresh herbs such as parsley or cilantro, chopped, for garnish

Cooking Time Total estimated time: 20 minutes

Instructions:

Step 1: Prepare the Avocado Mixture

In a bowl, mash the avocados with a fork until smooth yet chunky. Add the lemon juice, a pinch of salt, and pepper to taste. Mix until well combined.

Step 2: Toast the Bread

Toast the slices of bread until they are golden brown and crisp. If you don’t have a toaster, grilling them on a stovetop pan with a bit of olive oil offers a deliciously charred alternative.

Step 3: Poach the Eggs

Fill a saucepan with approximately 5cm (2 inches) of water, adding the white vinegar. Bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat. Carefully crack each egg into a small bowl. With a slotted spoon, create a gentle whirlpool in the simmering water, and gently slip an egg into the center. Poach each egg for about 3-4 minutes until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny. Use the slotted spoon to carefully remove each egg, allowing the water to drain.

Step 4: Assemble the Avocado Toast

Spread the avocado mixture generously over each piece of toasted bread. Top each with a poached egg, a drizzle of olive oil, and a sprinkle of salt and pepper. For added flavor, garnish with red pepper flakes and fresh herbs if desired.

Conclusion: Delighting in the simple pleasures of Avocado Toast with Poached Eggs is a true indulgence. With only a few ingredients and minimal preparation, you can enjoy this nutritious and satisfying dish any day.
