Ingredients - Poached egg and avocado
- 1 egg
- 1/2 tsp (2.5 ml) white vinegar*
- 1 slice of bread
- 1/2 avocado, thinly sliced
- 2 tsp (10 ml) lemon or lime juice
- A drizzle of olive oil, to taste
- 1 tsp (5 ml) parsley, finely chopped
- A pinch of salt
- Ground pepper or chili flakes
Preparation
Crack the egg into a bowl and set aside.
In a saucepan, heat water, white vinegar, and a generous pinch of salt until it bubbles. Using a wooden spoon, create a small swirl and pour the egg into the center. Let it cook for about 5 minutes.**
Meanwhile, toast the slice of bread in the toaster.
When the egg is ready, remove it from the water and place it on a paper towel or clean table cloth to absorb the excess water. Set aside.
On the golden toast, place the avocado slices, lemon juice, and egg. Finish with a drizzle of olive oil, chopped parsley, salt, and ground pepper or chili flakes.
* White vinegar helps the egg white coagulate more quickly. This ensures a more beautiful poached egg and that you don't waste too much egg white.
** If you don't want to poach your egg, you can prepare it another way without any problem.
