Smooshed Eggs Recipes

POACHED EGGS WITH SMASHED AVOCADO & TOMATOES

Steps:

• 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.
• 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.

SMASHED EGGS ON TOAST

Steps:

• Cook the eggs. Bring water to a boil in a medium sauce pan, then add a splash of white vinegar. Set a timer for exactly 7 minutes, then carefully lower eggs into water. Do not adjust the heat.
• Prepare ice bath. While the eggs are cooking, fill a large mixing bowl with ice water. Remove the eggs. As soon as the timer goes off (or a little before -- err on the side of undercooking!), quickly transfer the eggs to the ice bath. Allow to cool for about 5 minutes.
• Peel the eggs. Once the eggs are cool enough to touch, lightly tap the shells on a counter on all sides, then gently peel. Set aside until needed.
• Toast bread. Grab your favorite artisan bread, then slice into pieces about ½" thick. Toast, then set on plates.
• Mix the mayo. In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise and lemon juice. Spread a thin layer on each slice of bread.
• Smash the eggs. Place one peeled, soft boiled egg on top of each piece of toast. Cut in half, then use a fork to smash.
• Garnish and enjoy. Season each piece of toast with a generous pinch or two of flaky sea salt, then garnish with fresh dill, micro greens, freshly cracked black pepper, and any additional toppings. Enjoy immediately!

SMOKED EGGS

Steps:

• Preheat a smoker grill to 225 degrees F (110 degrees C). Add wood chips according to manufacturer's directions.
• Place whole eggs directly on the grate of the preheated smoker. Cook, without turning, for 2 hours, maintaining an even temperature.
• Transfer eggs to a plate and allow to cool completely before peeling. Season with salt and pepper.

SMOOSHED EGGS

Steps:

• Melt a small amount of margarine in a frying pan large enough to hold two slices of bread.
• Crack each egg into the frying pan as you would for fried eggs, but make sure they are far enough apart for the next few steps to work properly.
• Place a slice of bread on top of each egg and "smoosh" it with a spatula.
• Flip each egg and slice of bread over into the smooshed egg residue in the pan to coat as well as you can.
• Flip eggs and bread back over until your eggs are as done as you like them.
• If needed, flip them back over to the bread side until it starts looking kind of like French toast, and there is no raw egg left on the bread.
• Salt and pepper eggs to taste.
• If you wish you can put the two halves together to make a sandwich.
• Add more margarine to the pan as needed to avoid sticking.
