Avocado Toast and Egg for a Solo Meal

Ingredients 0/10

Step 1

Stir the shallot, red wine vinegar, and a pinch of salt in a small bowl and set it aside to let the flavors meld. In another bowl, mash the avocado with lime juice and a bit of salt until creamy.

Step 2

Fill a small saucepan with about 2 to 3 inches of water and bring it to a boil. Add a splash of vinegar, then lower the heat so the water is just simmering gently. Crack your egg into a small cup or ramekin, then carefully slide it into the simmering water. Let it cook until the whites are fully set but the yolk is still a bit soft, about 3 to 4 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to lift the egg out and place it on a paper towel to drain. Season with a little salt and pepper.

Step 3

While the egg is poaching, toast your bread to how you like it. Once toasted, spread the mashed avocado over the bread, add a spoonful of the pickled shallots, and top everything with the poached egg. Finish it off with a sprinkle of Aleppo pepper, and enjoy right away.
