Step-by-step recipe

check things off as you go
  1. Bring the water to a boil

    Fill a saucepan with water and bring it to a full boil over high heat. Meanwhile, move on to the next step.

  2. Lower in the eggs

    Gently lower the 4 eggs into the boiling water with the slotted spoon, then turn down to medium heat for a simmer. Set a timer for 6 min.

    Tip · Take the eggs out of the fridge 10 min ahead, or lower them in with the slotted spoon without dropping them from high up, so the shells don't crack.
  3. Toast the bread

    While the eggs cook, toast 4 slices of whole wheat bread in the toaster until golden. Set the other 4 slices aside, you won't need them for this recipe.

  4. Prep the tomatoes

    Wash the 2 tomatoes and slice them thinly. Salt them with half the pinch of salt.

  5. Mash the avocado

    Cut the 2 avocados in half, remove the pits and mash the flesh in a mixing bowl with a fork. Add the olive oil, the rest of the pinch of salt and the pepper.

  6. Cool and peel

    As soon as the 6 min are up, drop the eggs into a bowl of cold water for 1 min, then peel them gently.

    Tip · Roll the egg on the counter to crack the shell before peeling it, it's easier under a stream of cold water.
  7. Build the toasts

    Spread the mashed avocado over the 4 toasted slices and lay the tomato slices on top. Cut each egg in half, set it on its toast, then add pepper.

And there you go, it's readyCheck off every step to celebrate.

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. Soft-boiled, poached or scrambled eggs are made to order: reheated, they firm up and the runny yolk is gone. Make them the day you eat them, it's done in 5 minutes!
