Instructions
Creating Avocado Toast with Poached Egg is a breeze when you follow these simple steps:
1. Toast the Bread: Begin by toasting the slices of bread until they’re golden brown and crispy.
2. Prepare the Avocado: While the bread is toasting, cut the avocado in half and remove the pit. Scoop the flesh into a bowl and mash it with a fork. Add salt and pepper to taste.
3. Poach the Eggs: Bring a pot of water to a gentle simmer. Add the vinegar to the water. Crack each egg into a small bowl, then gently slide it into the simmering water. Cook for about 3-4 minutes for a soft poached egg or longer for a firmer yolk.
4. Assemble the Toast: Once the bread is toasted, spread the mashed avocado evenly over each slice.
5. Add the Poached Eggs: Carefully remove the poached eggs from the water using a slotted spoon. Place one egg on top of each slice of avocado toast.
6. Garnish: Add any optional toppings you desire, such as red pepper flakes for a bit of heat, microgreens for freshness, or a squeeze of lemon juice for brightness.
7. Serve Immediately: Enjoy your Avocado Toast with Poached Egg while it’s fresh and warm.
