Step-by-step recipe

check things off as you go
  1. Toast the bread

    Toast the 8 slices of country bread in the toaster, or in a dry skillet over medium heat for 2 min per side, until golden.

  2. Mash the avocado

    Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit and scoop the flesh into a bowl. Mash it with a fork with the olive oil, salt and pepper.

  3. Bring the water to a simmer

    Fill a saucepan two thirds full of water and heat over medium heat to a gentle simmer, no big bubbles.

  4. Spread the hummus

    Split the 120 g of hummus over the 8 slices, so 15 g per slice, then spread all the mashed avocado on top.

  5. Poach the eggs

    Crack an egg into a bowl, swirl the simmering water gently and slide it in. Poach for 3 min, then lift it out with the slotted spoon and do the same with the second one.

    Tip · The water should never boil hard, otherwise the white spreads out. Drain the egg on the slotted spoon and dab it on a dish towel for a second before setting it on the bread.
  6. Plate and serve

    Set each poached egg on a toast, so 2 toasts get an egg, and season with salt and pepper. Serve right away with the other 6 toasts on the side.

    Tip · The 6 toasts without egg are great with just hummus and avocado, and save the 2 egg toasts for last so the egg stays warm.

Pantry salt, oil and spices aren't counted. Your store and your brands will move the total, but the ballpark is right.

How long does it keep?

Eat it fresh. Bread and wraps get soggy when they sit with the filling. Prep the filling ahead if you want, and put it together the day you eat it!
