BAKED EGGS IN AVOCADO WITH PITTA
Ingredients
- 1 ripe avocado
- 2 medium free-range eggs
- 1 tomato
- finely chopped
- 3 spring onions
- finely sliced
- 1-2 pitta breads
- toasted
- salt and freshly ground black pepper
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 220C/200C Fan/Gas 7.
- Slice the avocado in half lengthwise and twist to separate the halves. Chop a knife into the avocado stone (like an axe) and lever it out of the avocado. If the stone is small
- you may need a teaspoon to scoop out a bit of a bigger hole. A tablespoon-size hole works best.
- Scrunch up some tin foil to hold the avocado halves in place on a baking tray
- or wedge them into a small tin so they don't move.
- Crack one of the eggs into a small bowl
- then carefully pour it into one half of the avocado and season with salt and pepper. Repeat with the other half
- then bake for 12-15 minutes until the egg white is cooked through.
- Serve with the tomato
- spring onions and toasted pitta on the side.
