Step 1
Toast bread until golden brown and crispy, about 2–3 minutes per side.
Step 2
Heat 0.5 tbsp oil in a skillet over medium-high until it shimmers, ~90 seconds.
Step 3
Crack egg into the skillet and fry until whites set but yolk still jiggles, ~3–4 minutes.
Step 4
While egg cooks, halve avocado and scoop flesh into a bowl; mash lightly with a fork.
Step 5
Drizzle remaining 1 tbsp oil on toast. Spread mashed avocado evenly on both slices.
Step 6
Slide fried egg onto one slice; sprinkle salt and red pepper flakes over both.
Step 7
Press slices together or serve open-faced. Eat immediately.
