03 — Method

  1. Fill a deep saucepan three-quarters full of water. Add the white vinegar (no salt, which stops the egg from setting). Bring to a simmer, not a boil.
  2. Meanwhile, mash the half avocado in a small bowl with the lemon juice and a pinch of salt, leaving it chunky.
  3. Toast the bread until golden and crisp.
  4. Crack the egg gently into a ladle, keeping the yolk whole. Hold the ladle just above the simmering water.
  5. Stir the water into a whirlpool and slide the egg into the center. Cook for exactly 3 minutes for a set white and runny yolk.
  6. Lift out with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels for 5 seconds.
  7. Spread the avocado on the toast and make a small well in the center.
  8. Top with the poached egg, sprinkle with Espelette pepper and flaky salt, and serve right away.
