Ingredients

  • 2 ripe avocados

  • a wedge of lemon, for squeezing

  • 4 slices good-quality sourdough bread

  • 4 tbsp olive oil

  • 4 eggs

  • small lemon wedges, to serve

Egg seasoning (makes extra)

  • 1 tbsp garlic flakes

  • 1 tbsp onion flakes

  • 1 tbsp dried parsley flakes

  • 2 tsp smoked paprika

  • 1 tbsp salt flakes

  • 1 tsp ground black pepper

  • 1 tsp coarse, mild Korean chilli powder

  • 1 tsp powdered vegetable stock (optional)

Method

  1. Step 1

    For the egg seasoning, mix the ingredients together and store in an airtight bag. It will keep for months.

  2. Step 2

    Mash the avocados with a fork, and season well with salt, black pepper and a little lemon juice.

  3. Step 3

    Heat a griddle pan over high heat and drizzle the bread with about 2 tbsp of olive oil. Place on the griddle and put a light weight (a pot lid or similar) on the bread to keep it in contact with the pan without squashing it. Toast the bread on both sides for a minute or two and then spread the mashed avocado generously on top.

  4. Step 4

    While the bread is toasting, heat a frying pan over low-medium heat and add the remaining olive oil. Crack the eggs into the pan and scatter some of the egg seasoning generously on top. Fry on low-medium heat for about 5 minutes, until the eggs are set. Place an egg on top of each slice of bread and serve with lemon wedges.
