AVOCADO TOAST WITH EGG



Avocado Toast with Egg image

I love avocado toast, and if you add an egg to it you have a full meal. Sometimes I use balsamic vinegar to flavor the avocado instead of the lemon juice. You can make the egg any way you like, but I like it best fried or poached.

AVOCADO TOAST



Avocado Toast image

It may seem silly to give a recipe for avocado toast, but there is an art to it, as with most things that are both simple and perfect. Here, you want to make sure of a few things: that the bread you use is sturdy and has some taste; that there's enough salt and citrus to bring out the avocado's flavor; and that you use a good olive oil to bring it all together. These garnishes, from the Australian café Two Hands in Manhattan, are tasty but unnecessary.

Time 5m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 large slices crusty, chewy sourdough bread, preferably whole wheat
1 ripe avocado, halved, pit removed
Extra-virgin olive oil
Flaky salt and coarsely ground black pepper
Half a lemon or lime
Poached or fried eggs
Thinly sliced pickled or fresh red chiles, such as Fresno or cherry
Thinly sliced pickled red onions
Pepitas (pumpkin seeds) or sesame seeds, or both
Herbs, such as basil, cilantro, mint or baby arugula

Steps:

  • Toast the bread to your liking. Meanwhile, use a wide spoon to remove the avocado halves from the peel, keeping them in large pieces.
  • Drizzle the hot toast lightly with olive oil and sprinkle with salt. Let cool slightly, then place one avocado half on each slice of toast. Use the back of a fork to roughly mash the avocado into the bread, keeping it as chunky as possible.
  • Sprinkle with a little more salt, and pepper if desired. Squeeze the citrus over the top and add any garnishes. Cut each piece of toast in half if they're large and serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe avocados: Look for avocados that have a deep green or almost black skin. They should be slightly soft when you gently squeeze them.
  • Use a sharp knife: A sharp knife will help you cut the avocado cleanly and easily.
  • Scoop out the avocado flesh: Use a spoon to scoop out the avocado flesh. Be careful not to scoop out the skin.
  • Mash the avocado: Use a fork or spoon to mash the avocado until it is smooth and creamy.
  • Season the avocado: Add salt, pepper, and lemon juice to taste. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or chili powder.
  • Toast the bread: Toast the bread until it is golden brown and crispy.
  • Spread the avocado on the toast: Spread the mashed avocado on the toasted bread.
  • Top with your favorite toppings: You can top your avocado toast with a variety of toppings, such as eggs, bacon, cheese, tomatoes, or sprouts.
