Brunch does not have to be really difficult. I will try to do too many items for brunch (two sweet, two savory, a fun drink also, maybe a fruit salad, too). It just gets too crazy to try to manage all of that. This definitely is not a "make-ahead" brunch, but if you stick to just one dish, it comes together quickly!


I had never poached an egg before making this. I can sometimes be hesitant to have a super-runny yolk. I need to have bread or something to "sop it up," because it can be too much. I find this recipe perfectly does that, and also adds a ton of different textures to contrast with the soft poached egg. The flavors also with bright pickles and spicy chili oil, creamy and smooth avocado..it's just fun! Give this one a try and let me know how you like it!

Ingredients
Poached egg toast
  • 1 thick slice of sourdough or another hearty bread that you enjoy
  • 1 large egg + 2 Tbsp vinegar for poaching
  • 1/2 large avocado
  • 1 tsp pepita seeds
  • fresh basil leaves
  • 2 tbsp plain hummus spread
  • 1 Tbsp chili oil
  • 2 radishes, pickled (optional)
  • pomegranate seeds (optional, but highly encouraged)!
Instructions
Poached egg toast
Toast your bread and set aside
Get ready to poach your egg
Bring a large pot of water to a boil and reduce to simmer
While you wait for the boiling water (a watched pot...) you can crack the egg into a fine mesh sieve over a bowl. The idea is you are removing all of the liquid-y egg whites
Place the egg in a small bowl
While you are likely still waiting for that boiling water, spread your toast with hummus and slice the avocados for the top of that
Add your fresh basil leaves and pickled radishes
Now, the fun part! Stir the vinegar into your hot water and create a vortex by stirring rapidly.
Now add the egg into the middle and cook for 3 minutes.
You will start to see it solidifying!
Remove the egg gently with a slotted spoon and place on top of toast right away
Top with pipits, pomegranate arils, and a little chili paste if you would like
ENJOY!
Tips
  • If you don't like radishes, you could always quick-pickle red onion for the same effect!
