Easy poached eggs with avocado on toast
I`ve personally love this easy poached eggs with avocado on toast recipe. It is perfect for breakfast as is light, healthy, keeps me full and is a great start to begin your day. You`ll see later in the recipe that I`ve choose not to put butter on the toast just to approach a healthier version. If you fancy some butter spread on your slice of bread totally fine actually it will be even tastier.This easy poached eggs with avocado on toast recipe is a quick recipe, very healthy because of the avocado and also because the eggs are poached in water and is not fried in oil. Perfect for the rush mornings.
Ingredients
- 1 egg
- 1 slice of bread
- 1/2 avocado
- salt, pepper
- lemon juice
Instructions
- In a medium saucepan put 3 quarters of water and bring it to a simmer.
- TIP: You can break the egg into a small bowl as that will be easier when you`ll put it in the saucepan.
- Once the water is at a simmer stir the water with the bottom of your slotted spoon to make a swirling motion in the water.
- Slide the egg into the water but carefully to don`t break it.
- Cover the saucepan, low to medium heat and keep an eye on it.
- Pouch the egg until the whites is firm and yolks still runny (you can check using the slotted spoon and lift it). It should be done between 3:45-4:00 mins, depends on the preferences.
- Remove the egg using the slotted spoon and drain a bit over the pan.
- Meanwhile put the slice of bread to toast, cut the avocado on half, slice the half of avocado and using a normal spoon take out the avocado from the shell and put it on top of the slice of bread.
- Sprinkle with a bit of lemon juice and salt.
- Now comes the tricky part, remove the egg from the saucepan using a slotted spoon and drain a bit over the pan and slowly put it on top of the toast with avocado.
- Sprinkle salt, pepper and bon appetit.
