Chef Prakash Chettiyar, executive chef, JW Marriott Kolkata shares a tempting breakfast recipe -- Avocado Toast With Tomatoes And Poached Eggs.
Always wondered how you can start your day with avocado?
Well, here's an interesting recipe you must try.
Avocado Toast With Tomatoes And Poached Eggs
Serves:1
Ingredients
- 3 thick toasted slices sourdough bread or your favourite crusty grainy bread
- 1½ avocadoes, pitted
- Juice of 1 lime
- 3 poached eggs or fried, scrambled, sunny side up, etc (whatever your favourite is!)
- 1½ tomatoes, sliced
- Cream cheese, as required
- Microgreens, for serving
- Pinch salt.
- Pinch black pepper powder
Method
- In a small bowl, using a fork, mix and mash together the avocadoes, salt, and lime juice.
Spread the toasted bread with a generous layer of cream cheese.
Then top with the smashed avocado and tomato slices.
Top with the poached eggs and a handful of microgreens. - Season with salt and pepper and devour!
Notes
- To poach the eggs, crack an egg into a small dish and bring a pot of water to boil, about 3 to 4 inches of water.
- Add a tbsp of vinegar. Bring it to the point where it's just starting to boil, and create a whirlpool with a spoon or spatula.
- Quickly slide the egg into the centre of the whirlpool, and let it be!
- Make sure the water stays at a slow bubble, not a rolling boil.
- Cook for 3-4 minutes, remove with a slotted spoon and enjoy!
