Ingredients
- 2 slices sourdough bread (or bread of choice)
- 1 ripe avocado
- 1/2 lemon (for juice)
- 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/4 teaspoon turmeric
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon olive oil or butter (for frying eggs)
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1/4 teaspoon red chili flakes (adjust to taste)
- 1/2 teaspoon water (to thin honey, optional)
- Fresh herbs (parsley, cilantro, or chives), for garnish
Instructions
- Toast the bread slices until golden and crisp.
- While the bread is toasting, halve and pit the avocado. Scoop the flesh into a bowl. Add lemon juice, sea salt, black pepper, smoked paprika, and turmeric. Mash together until mostly smooth but still a bit chunky.
- In a small bowl, mix honey and chili flakes. Add a splash of water if you want a thinner drizzle.
- Heat olive oil or butter in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Crack in the eggs and cook to your liking (sunny side up is recommended for the “sunrise” effect).
- Spread the spiced avocado mash evenly over the toasted bread.
- Top each slice with a fried egg.
- Drizzle the honey-chili mixture over the eggs and avocado.
- Garnish with fresh herbs and an extra pinch of chili flakes if desired.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
Tips
- Try multigrain or gluten-free bread for a twist.
- For extra protein, add smoked salmon or crispy bacon.
- Adjust chili flakes to your preferred spice level.
