Ingredients
2 large eggs
2 rice cakes (plain or whole grain)
1 ripe avocado
Salt, to taste
Black pepper, to taste
Optional garnishes: chopped chives, red pepper flakes, sesame seeds
Instructions
- Soft-Boiling the Eggs:
Fill a saucepan with enough water to cover the eggs. Bring the water to a boil.
Gently lower the eggs into the boiling water using a spoon.
Boil for exactly 6 minutes for a soft-boiled consistency. Adjust the time if you prefer a firmer yolk.
After boiling, immediately place the eggs in a bowl of ice water for at least 1 minute to stop the cooking process. This also makes peeling easier. - Preparing the Avocado:
While the eggs are boiling, cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and slice it thinly. - Assembling the Rice Cakes:
Place the rice cakes on a plate.
Layer the sliced avocado on top of each rice cake.
Once the eggs are cool enough to handle, peel them and cut each one in half.
Place one half of a soft-boiled egg on top of each avocado-covered rice cake. - Seasoning:
Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
Optionally, sprinkle with chopped chives, red pepper flakes, or sesame seeds for extra flavor and garnish. - Serving:
Serve immediately while the egg is still warm.
