Ingredients

  • 1 small avocado
  • 1 –2 cups water
  • 2 eggs
  • 6 cherry tomatoes
  • 1 tablespoon white vinegar
  • Pinch of salt
  • Cracked black pepper
  • Fresh chives chopped

Instructions
 

  • Toast the sourdough bread until golden and crisp.
  • Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a medium bowl.
  • Mash the avocado with a fork and season with salt and cracked black pepper.
  • Bring the water to a boil in a small saucepan, then reduce to a gentle simmer.
  • Add the white vinegar to the water.
  • Crack one egg into a small cup.
  • Stir the water gently to create a whirlpool and carefully slide the egg into the center.
  • Poach for 3–4 minutes until the egg white is set and the yolk remains soft.
  • Repeat with the second egg.
  • Spread the mashed avocado evenly over the toasted bread.
  • Slice the cherry tomatoes in half and arrange them on top of the avocado.
  • Carefully remove the poached eggs with a slotted spoon and place them on paper towels to drain briefly.
  • Place one egg on each slice of toast.
  • Finish the Avocado Toast with Egg and Tomato with freshly cracked pepper and chopped chives before serving.

Notes

 

  • Replace cherry tomatoes with grape tomatoes or sliced heirloom tomatoes.
  • Add feta cheese for extra creaminess and flavor.
  • Serve alongside fresh fruit or a green salad for a complete meal.
  • Fresh herbs such as parsley, dill, or basil can be used instead of chives.
