Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Slice the ripe avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a small mixing bowl.
- Add 1/2 teaspoon of salt to the avocado.
- Mash the avocado with a fork until smooth and creamy. Set aside.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a small, non-stick frying pan over medium heat.
- Carefully crack the egg into the pan and cook for about 2-3 minutes, or until the white is set and the yolk is cooked to your preference (sunny-side up or fully cooked).
- Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 teaspoon of salt over the egg as it cooks.
- Transfer the mashed avocado onto a serving plate, shaping it into a circular mound.
- Gently place the cooked egg on top of the avocado mound.
- Serve immediately while the egg is still warm. Optionally, garnish with freshly ground black pepper, chopped herbs (such as cilantro or chives), or a dash of hot sauce for extra flavor.
Tips:
- Choose a ripe avocado for the best flavor and texture. It should be slightly soft to the touch but not mushy.
- Cook the egg to your desired doneness. A runny yolk adds a delightful richness, while a fully cooked yolk is just as tasty.
- Season the avocado with salt and pepper or add a squeeze of lime juice for a zesty twist.
- For added flavor, consider sprinkling some herbs like cilantro or parsley on top.
- Toast a slice of whole grain bread and use it as a base for the stack for extra crunch and fiber.
