Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Bring a small pot of water to a boil. Gently lower eggs into water and cook for 6–7 minutes until whites are set but yolks still jiggle slightly.

  2. Step 2

    While eggs cook, toast bread until golden and crisp on both sides.

  3. Step 3

    Halve the avocado and scoop flesh into a bowl. Mash with a fork until creamy but still chunky.

  4. Step 4

    Squeeze lemon juice over avocado, add a pinch of salt and pepper, and stir to combine.

  5. Step 5

    Spread mashed avocado evenly onto each toast slice. Top each with a soft-boiled egg.

  6. Step 6

    Sprinkle with flaky salt and red pepper flakes. Serve immediately while egg yolk is warm and runny.
