Method

  • step 1

    Heat a non-stick frying pan, very lightly brush the cut surface of the tomatoes with a little oil, then cook them, cut-side down, in the pan until they have softened and slightly caramelised. Meanwhile, heat a pan of water, carefully break in the eggs and leave to poach for 1-2 mins until the whites are firm but the yolks are still runny.

  • step 2

    Halve and stone the avocado, then scoop out the flesh and smash onto the bread. Add the eggs, grind over black pepper and add a handful of rocket to each portion. Serve the tomatoes on the side.

In this recipe, the instruction is to poach the egg for '1-2' minutes. In the tutorial by Barney, of GF, he reckons 3 mins. Tom Kerridge's egg get '4-5' mins. That's a difference across the three instructions of between 100% to 500%.
