Instructions
- 1Prepare the avocado and the base. Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit and scoop the flesh into a small bowl. Add lemon juice, salt and pepper, and roughly mash with a fork (it shouldn't be completely smooth, to keep some texture).
- 2Toast the slice of bread in a toaster or in a dry pan until golden-brown and crispy. This is key so the bread doesn't get soggy under the weight of the topping.
- 3Heat olive oil in a small pan over medium heat. Crack in the egg and fry for 3–4 minutes, until the white sets while the yolk remains runny. (Alternatively, you can poach the egg for a lower-fat version).
- 4First spread a layer of grainy cottage cheese on the crispy toast (this adds volume and protein). Spread the mashed avocado over the cottage cheese. Carefully place the fried egg on top.
- 5Sprinkle with chili flakes, an extra pinch of salt and fresh chives, then serve.
