Instructions
- Dice the tomato into small cubes, taking care to remove the seeds.
Peel the avocados and mash the flesh in a bowl. Finely chop the shallot.
- Add the lemon juice, a pinch of salt, the diced tomatoes, the finely chopped shallot, the chopped coriander, 1 tablespoon of olive oil and the guacamole spices. Mix together.
- Bring a pan of water to the boil.
- Once the water is boiling, gently lower the eggs into it.
- Time exactly 5 minutes from the moment the water returns to the boil. Then remove them from the boiling water using a slotted spoon and plunge them straight into a bowl of ice-cold water to stop them cooking further.
- Carefully peel the eggs.
- Spread the guacamole onto the slices of bread. Cut the cherry tomatoes into quarters and arrange them on top of the guacamole.
- Place the soft-boiled egg on top and carefully make a small cut in it. Season with salt and pepper, then drizzle with a little olive oil. Enjoy straight away.
Tip
For this recipe, we recommend PDO huile d'olive d'Aix-en-Provence (intense taste) for its aromas of raw artichoke and greenery, sometimes complemented by hints of walnuts/hazelnuts and red berries.
If you don’t have this, choose another intense-flavoured olive oil: PDO huile d'olive de Corse - Oliu di Corsica, PDO huile d'olive de Haute-Provence, PDO huile d'olive du Languedoc, PDO huile d'olive de Nîmes, PDO huile d'olive de Provence, PDO huile d'olive de la Vallée des Baux-de-Provence.
