I am totally obsessed with eggs at the moment. There are so many different things you can do with eggs; poach them, pan fry them, boil them, scramble them or make an omelette, you can make sauces with them and bake with them...basically, ANYTHING! :)
It is widely believed that poaching is hard to do but the fact is, it's actually quite simple. Here's how to do it:
My favourite breakfast
Poached egg with avocado
What you need:
1 tbsp clear vinegar
Boiling water to fill 3/4 of a pot
1-2 eggs
1 ripe avocado
How to:
Put the vinegar in the pot, boil the water in a kettle (It is just quicker)
Put the boiling water in the pot and keep the stove on mark 6 (of 9)
The important thing here is that the water shouldn't boil, not even simmer. It should be at the temperature just before the tiny bubbles occur.
Crack the egg carefully and put the raw egg slowly in the pot. Leave for 3-5 minutes. Once finished carefully pick it up with a spatula with wholes in it so the excess water drips down. The egg white should be shiny put just solid and the yolk should be runny.
While the egg is cooking, halve the avocado, mash the avocado if you like or cut it in half moon pieces. Top with the poached egg.
Garnish with some salt and pepper.
Enjoy!
