👨‍🍳 Method

For the Boiled Egg

1
Bring a deep pot with water, 7–8 cm deep, to a gentle simmer and add the vinegar.
StovePot
2
Crack each egg into a small cup, stir the water in a circle and slide in one egg.
💡The vinegar sets the white quickly, and the whirlpool wraps it around the yolk: the egg stays round instead of spreading through the water.
3
Cook 3–4 minutes, until the white is set and the egg is springy to the touch, and lift out with a slotted spoon.

5
Place on the bread an egg on each slice.
💡Add the egg just before serving: toast that sits under a hot egg goes soft, and the avocado spread turns brown.
