Serves: 2

Prepare: 10 minutes

Cook: 15 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 2 large avocados
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 tsp dried chilli flakes
  • 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • a handful of mixed salad leaves

1 . Preheat the oven to 180°C

2 . Cut the avocados in half length way, discard the stones and remove some of the flesh with a spoon, just enough to fit a whole egg.

3 . Arrange the avocados in a baking tray making sure they stay in place to avoid the eggs overflowing. Brake one egg in each avocado half.

4 . Put the tray in the oven and bake for 15 minutes.

5 . Take the avocados out of the oven leave them to rest for a couple of minutes whilst you arrange the salad leaves on a big serving plate. Season with extra virgin olive oil, salt and chilli flakes and place the avocados on the salad bed. You can add a grinding of black pepper and a drizzle more oil, if liked.

Best served hot as a starter or light main.
