Cooking method

Cooking time: 10 min

The first step is to wash the avocado and slice the bread. Avocado is better to choose softer. If the avocado is still hard enough, it is better to put it in a dark place for a day at room temperature.
Cut the avocado along the bone and with twisting movements separate one half from the other. For two sandwiches, you will need one half of an avocado. Remove the pulp with a tablespoon and mash it with a fork. Add a little salt, lemon juice, paprika and a tablespoon of olive oil. Mix it up.
Dry the pieces of bread in a dry frying pan on both sides until golden. You can take absolutely any bread, I like ciabatta better. Grain bread with cereals is also ideal. I would not recommend ordinary rye bread, it is quite dense and sour. It is better to take non-dense varieties of bread with a sufficiently neutral taste to feel the delicate taste of avocado.
In order to cook a poached egg, it is necessary to bring water to a boil in a small saucepan, add 1 teaspoon of vinegar and a couple of pinches of salt. In an acidic environment, the protein folds better. Break the egg in advance into a small bowl. Shake the water with a whisk or spoon so that a funnel forms in the middle, carefully pour the egg into it. Cook for about 2 minutes, the protein should be completely cooked, and the yolk should remain liquid. During cooking, you can slightly twist the water, passing along the edge of the pan with a tablespoon. Next, you need to carefully transfer the egg into cold water, literally for 20-30 seconds, to stop the cooking process. Remove the egg on a paper towel.
It is better to take eggs as fresh as possible, since fresh eggs have a denser protein and when cooked it will not disperse in flakes in water. There is also another way to cook poached eggs, you need to take a small piece of food wrap, put it in a small bowl, lubricate with vegetable oil, break an egg into it, twist the tips of the film on top, tie with a thread and cook in boiling water.
I like the first option better, because in my experience, the egg takes longer to cook in the film.
Next, spread the avocado mixture on a piece of bread, put an egg on top, sprinkle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and sesame if desired.
A hearty and nutritious sandwich is ready. Enjoy your meal!
