  • Avocado

    1

  • Lemon Juice

    1 tablespoon

  • Salt

    1 pinch

  • Black Pepper

    1 pinch

  • Garlic Powder

    1 pinch

  • Chilli flakes

    0.5 teaspoon

  • Olive Oil

    1 teaspoon

  • Whole-grain bread

    2 slices

  • Eggs

    2

  • Vinegar

    2 tablespoons

Avocado Preparation

  1. 1

    Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a bowl.

  2. 2

    Mash the avocado with a fork until it's creamy.

  3. 3

    Add the lemon juice, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, chilli flakes, and olive oil to the avocado. Mix everything well until combined.

Perfectly Poached Eggs

  1. 1

    Fill a medium pot or deep saucepan with enough water to generously cover the eggs. Add a generous pinch of salt and about 2 tablespoons of vinegar to the water. The vinegar helps the egg whites set beautifully.

  2. 2

    Bring the water to a boil, then immediately reduce the heat to a gentle simmer. You should see small, occasional bubbles, not a rolling boil.

  3. 3

    Carefully create a whirlpool in the simmering water using a spoon. This helps the egg white wrap around the yolk.

  4. 4

    Crack each egg into a separate small ramekin or cup first. Gently slip one egg into the center of the whirlpool.

  5. 5

    Let the egg poach for 3-5 minutes, depending on how firm you like your yolk. For a perfectly runny yolk, aim for 3 minutes. The water temperature should remain at a gentle simmer, around 80°C (175°F).

  6. 6

    Remove the poached egg with a slotted spoon and let any excess water drain off. Repeat the process for the second egg.

Assembly

  1. 1

    While the eggs are poaching, toast the whole-grain bread slices until they are golden brown and crispy.

  2. 2

    Evenly spread the prepared avocado mixture over each slice of toasted whole-grain bread.

  3. 3

    Place one perfectly poached egg on top of the avocado spread on each toast.

Serving Suggestions

  1. 1

    Serve your gourmet avocado toast immediately to enjoy the warm, runny yolk. You can enjoy it as is, or for a more complete meal, serve it alongside a fresh green salad.

  2. 2

    Optionally, drizzle a little balsamic vinegar over the toast for an extra touch of tangy flavor.
