Ingredients
  

  • 3 medium eggs
  • 2 slices bread we like seeded sourdough
  • butter as much as you like!
  • salt & pepper

Optional

  • Drizzle chilli oil
  • Sprinkle chilli flakes

Instructions
 

  • Firstly, bring a pan of water to boil
  • Once the water is boiling, carefully drop the 3 eggs into the water and reduce to a medium heat. Set a timer - allow the eggs to cook for 7 minutes
  • While the eggs are cooking, prepare a bowl of cold water
  • When your egg timer goes off, remove them from the pan and add straight to the prepared bowl of cold water - you can add more running cold water to replenish. This allows the eggs to cool instantly and stop cooking to retain the jammy yolk
  • Toast the bread to your liking, add butter
  • Once cooled, peel the eggs and then cut into wedges - pile onto your toast, followed by salt and pepper
  • Drizzle with chilli oil / chilli flakes if using
