Serves: 2
Ingredients
- 8 rashers free-range British streaky bacon
- 4 thick slices of bread
- Olive oil for frying
- 2 medium free-range eggs
- Butter for spreading
- 1 ripe avocado
- Juice 1 lime
- Small handful of fresh coriander, roughly chopped, plus extra to serve
- Sriracha sauce
Method
- Heat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan/gas 6 and place the bacon on a bacon tray, making sure they’re not overlapping. Cook for 10-12 minutes, turning once throughout to allow them to crisp.
- Place a pan on a medium heat and add a teaspoon of olive oil to it before placing your heart-shaped cookie cutter into the middle. Crack your fried egg into it and cook 3-4 minutes until the top is cooked through. Repeat to make more eggs.
- Meanwhile, mash the avocado in a bowl with the lime juice, chopped coriander and a pinch of salt and black pepper.
- Pop your toast in the toaster and once it’s ready, top it with the avocado, bacon and the heart eggs, before finishing with a drizzle of sriracha.
