Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 tablespoon White vinegar
- 0.5 whole Avocado
- 2 slices Bread (your choice)
- 1 tablespoon Butter
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Hot sauce
- 5 cups Water
Instructions
Fill a medium-sized saucepan with 5 cups of water and bring it to just below a simmer over medium heat. The water should be hot but not boiling, with small bubbles forming on the bottom of the pan.
Add 1 tablespoon of white vinegar to the simmering water. This helps the egg whites coagulate and keeps the eggs intact while poaching.
Crack one egg into a small bowl or ramekin. This allows you to check for shell fragments and makes it easier to slide the egg gently into the water.
Using a spoon, create a gentle whirlpool in the water by stirring in a circular motion. This helps the egg whites wrap around the yolk as you add the egg.
Carefully slide the egg from the bowl into the center of the whirlpool. Let it cook undisturbed for 3 minutes for a soft yolk or 4 minutes for a firmer yolk.
While the egg is poaching, toast 2 slices of bread until golden and spread with 1 tablespoon of butter.
Use a slotted spoon to remove the poached egg from the water and place it on a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess moisture.
Repeat the process with the second egg.
Slice half an avocado and lay the slices on top of the buttered toast. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt and black pepper for flavor.
Place one poached egg on each slice of avocado toast. Add an extra sprinkle of black pepper, a pinch of salt, and a drizzle of hot sauce if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy this easy, nourishing meal to help you recover!
