What you'll need:
- 1 slice of any bread you desire
- ½ of an avocado
- 1 egg
- Small bowl
- Garlic powder, salt, pepper, red pepper
How to make it:
First, I'll teach you how to make a poached egg. As you can see in the picture above, I made mine a little softer today. It all depends on how you like your egg yolk.
1. Take out a skillet and fill it with water (about an inch). Add a pinch of salt into the water and let it boil. While you're waiting for your water to boil, crack open your egg into a tiny bowl.
2. Once your water is boiling, slowly pour your egg out of the bowl into the boiling water.
Note: Christi's boyfriend, Cam, taught me to take a fork and spin the water around as you're pouring your egg in. This helps the white form around the yolk better.
3. Turn down your heat slightly and set your timer to 5 minutes. This is where you can change it up. Start off with 5 minutes and see how your egg looks. If the yolk looks too yellow, keep the egg in the water for longer! Sometimes I love my egg yolk solid... Keep an eye on it until you think it's perfect. You may notice that the top of the yolk has whitened. This is good!
4. As your egg is cooking, toast your bread.
5. Once your toast is done, spread half of an avocado on the top and spice it up any way you please! You can use hot sauce, red pepper, garlic powder, salt, pepper, whatever!
6. Once your egg is the way you want it, take a slotted spoon and lift it out of the water and on top of your avocado toast.
Note: You may notice some white froth around the sides of the egg. Before you lift the egg out of the water, you can take your slotted spoon and cut the edges off a little so you don't get the froth or stragglers.
