My kid made these. All by himself. He was so proud, and it was a great vegetarian meal, that we could all enjoy! I had NEVER poached an egg, before. I still haven't!
Ingredients
- 2 large slices of good sourdough bread
- extra virgin olive oil
- 12 spears of asparagus
- ½ teaspoon sweet smoked paprika
- 2 large free-range eggs
- Parmesan cheese
- 4 sprigs of fresh mint
Method
- Bring a pan of salted water to the boil, then reduce to a simmer.
- Heat a griddle pan over a high heat and toast the bread. Move each slice to a plate or board and drizzle with a little oil.
- Snap the woody end off the asparagus, then griddle for a few minutes on each side, sprinkle with the paprika and divide between the pieces of toast.
- While the asparagus is grilling, poach the eggs in the simmering water for 3 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, remove the eggs and drain, then place them on top of the asparagus.
- Grate over the parmesan, then pick and sprinkle over the mint leaves
