Ingredients
Scale
2 slices whole-grain bread
1 ripe avocado
2 large eggs
4 radishes, thinly sliced
1 teaspoon lemon juice
Pinch of salt
Freshly ground black pepper
Optional: Red pepper flakes for heat
Instructions
Toast the bread slices until golden brown and firm.
While the bread toasts, prepare the poached eggs. Bring a small pot of water to a gentle simmer. Add a splash of vinegar if you like.
Crack each egg separately into a small bowl. Create a gentle swirl in the simmering water with a spoon. Carefully slide one egg into the center of the swirl. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes for a runny yolk. Remove with a slotted spoon and repeat with the second egg.
In a small bowl, mash the avocado with the lemon juice and salt.
Spread the mashed avocado evenly over the two toast slices.
Top each slice with one poached egg.
Arrange the thin radish slices over the egg and avocado.
Season with black pepper and red pepper flakes, if using. Serve immediately.
Notes
For the best texture, use bread that is sturdy enough to hold the toppings.
To check the ripeness of your avocado, gently press the skin; it should yield slightly.
Vinegar in the poaching water helps the egg whites set quickly.
