Description

Embark on a gastronomic journey with the simple yet sublime Avocado Toast with Poached Egg. This dish blends the creamy texture of avocado with the delicate flavors of a perfectly poached egg, creating a breakfast or brunch option that is not only nutritious but also incredibly satisfying.

Ingredients

Scale

1/2x 1x 2x 3x

• 2 slices of whole-grain bread (toasted)
• 1 ripe avocado (mashed)
• 2 eggs (poached)
• Salt and pepper (to taste)
• 1 tsp olive oil (for drizzling)
• Red pepper flakes (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

1. Toast the Bread

   Start by toasting the bread slices to your preferred level of crispiness.
   

2. Mash the Avocado

   In a bowl, mash the avocado with a fork until it's creamy. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
   

3. Poach the Eggs

   Bring a pot of water to a gentle simmer. Crack each egg into a small bowl and gently slide them into the simmering water one at a time. Cook for about 3-4 minutes until the whites are set but the yolks remain runny. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on a paper towel.

4. Assemble the Toast

   Spread the mashed avocado evenly over the toasted bread slices. Place a poached egg on top of each slice. Season with salt and pepper, drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle red pepper flakes if using.
