Step-by-Step Instructions to Make Avocado & Scrambled Egg Toast with Cherry Tomatoes & Red Onion
Step 1: Prepare the Avocado and Toast
-
Toast the slices of bread until they are golden and crisp according to your liking. Set aside on serving plates.
-
Slice the avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a bowl. Lightly mash with a fork or slice thinly, depending on your preference. Sprinkle with lemon juice, garlic powder, salt, and pepper, mixing gently to combine flavors.
Step 2: Cook the Scrambled Eggs
-
Crack eggs into a mixing bowl and whisk vigorously until fully combined and frothy. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
-
Heat butter or olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Pour the whisked eggs into the pan, stirring gently with a spatula. Cook until eggs are softly set but still creamy. Remove immediately from heat to avoid overcooking.
Step 3: Assemble and Garnish
-
Spread the prepared avocado evenly onto the toasted bread slices.
-
Spoon generous amounts of scrambled eggs on top of the avocado layer. Add sliced cherry tomatoes and thinly sliced red onions evenly over the eggs. Finish with a sprinkle of smoked paprika and chopped fresh herbs for added freshness and vibrant color.
Notes
COOKING Note
• Scrambled eggs tip: To keep scrambled eggs creamy and soft, avoid cooking them on high heat. Medium heat and gentle stirring are key. • Avocado ripeness: Ensure the avocado is perfectly ripe; it should yield gently to pressure without being too soft or overly firm. • Toast crispiness: Pay attention while toasting bread, as burnt toast can significantly alter the taste and texture of the final dish.
