- ½ Lime (Juiced)

Instructions
Everything Bagel Seasoning
- Add the sesame & poppy seeds into small frying pan then cook over a medium heat until lightly toasted. This will only take a minute or two.
- Add the toasted seeds into a small mixing bowl, leave to cool then stir in the garlic granules, onion granules & sea salt. Set this aside for now.
Smashed Avocado
- Halve the avocado, remove the stone then score & scoop out the flesh. Place this into a mixing bowl with the lime juice then season with sea salt & freshly cracked black pepper.
- Give the avocado a good mash with a fork (or whisk) then give it a taste to check the seasoning. Add in more salt & pepper as needed.
Poached Eggs
- Fill a medium saucepan up with water, add in a generous splash of white wine vinegar then set over a medium heat & bring to a gentle simmer.
- Crack an egg into a small bowl/ramekin then gently add into the simmering water. Repeat with the other egg then poach for 2-3 minutes, until the whites have set but the yolks are still runny. Once cooked lift the eggs out of the water using a slotted spoon, letting them drain briefly before serving.It's best to poach your eggs just before plating up.
To Serve
- Whilst your eggs are poaching, toast the bread then place onto plates.
- Spread half of the smashed avocado over each slice of toast then top with a poached egg. Sprinkle everything bagel seasoning over each portion of avo toast then serve!
Notes
1. Bread - You can use whatever type of bread you like for this dish. I used a seeded sandwich bread for mine but sourdough or white bread will work as well.
2. Avocado - Ripe avocado works best for avocado toast. You could slice the avocado instead of mashing it, if you'd prefer.
3. Making In Advance - The everything bagel seasoning can be made several weeks in advance & should be stored in an airtight container. However, the smashed avocado is best made just before serving but will keep for up to a day in the fridge. To prevent it going brown, press a piece of clingfilm onto the surface of the avocado.
4. Scaling Up The Recipe - This recipe makes enough smashed avocado for 2 slices of toast. To make more portions, the recipe can be doubled, tripled etc. If you're a big fan of avocado, you could serve a whole avocado per slice of toast!
