  • Cooking time: 15 mins

  • Serves: 2

  • Skill level: Easy peasy

  • Costs: Cheap as chips

Ingredients

When buying eggs always look out for the Lion quality symbol: this means the eggs were British-laid and have been vaccinated against salmonella.

  • 2 large eggs
  • ½ tsp chilli flakes
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 thick slices white bread
  • ½ tbsp vegetable oil
  • Tomato salsa to serve

Method

  1. In a large wide dish, beat the eggs with the chilli, salt and freshly ground black pepper. Add the slices of bread and leave to soak for 5 mins.
  2. Heat half the oil in a large non-stick frying pan and when hot, lift two slices of bread from the egg, add to the pan and cook for 5 mins, turning once until golden brown on both sides. Remove from the pan, transfer to a plate and keep warm. Cook the remaining slices in the same way.
  3. Cut the eggy bread diagonally into four triangles. Serve the bread with tomato salsa and salad garnish.
