What you need for the egg in the avocado
-
One ripe avocado
When buying, make sure that the avocado is already a little soft. Because it simply tastes best that way. By the way, you can tell by the color of the skin. Ripe avocados are usually black. And if you squeeze them a little with your fingers. If the flesh yields a little, then put it in the shopping cart.
For the egg in the avocado, the fruit should not be too hard and not too soft - the golden mean is perfect! -
A small egg
The avocado offers space, but it is not enough for an XL egg. So you have to use a small egg. The egg will certainly make an attempt to escape. This is even quite fast, because it is nice and slippery in the avocado.
What you can do about it? The hole a little deeper, or you consciously look out for a large avocado. :) -
Salt, pepper and herbs
A few chili flakes also go great with the avocado in the egg. There are no limits to your imagination when it comes to herbs. Chives and parsley are very tasty.
-
One shape
It could be that the egg starts to run. So it's best to place the avocado in a baking dish. Then nothing can go wrong :)
Stuffed avocado with egg
Ingredients
- 1 Avocado
- 1 small Egg
- Salt, pepper
Anleitung
- Preheat your oven to 180° top and bottom heat.
- Grab the avocado and cut it lengthwise. Remove the pit and hollow it out a little with a tablespoon to make room for the egg
- Season the avocado with salt and pepper.
- Now place the avocado in the mold. It's best to lean it to the side of the mold. If you are afraid that the avocado will fall over and leak, you can simply cut it a little bit on the surface. So that a straight surface arises.
- And then you carefully put the fried egg into the opening. Nice and slow, so that the yolk is not damaged. It makes no difference to the taste, but as we all know, the eye eats with you :)
- After 10 to 15 minutes in the oven, your healthy breakfast is ready. The egg whites should have set by now.
- Get your stuffed avocado and egg out of the oven and sprinkle fresh herbs over your breakfast. Grab a whole wheat bread and a spoon. And off you go :)
