I really love this dish. Every bite of it makes you close your eyes and have a smile of happiness. Is it possilble just a breakfast to do all this? Of course it can.
Because when you have so many contrasts in a single bite, you even travel with the mind. The cool avocado dip harmoniously embraces the grilled Mastelo cow’s cheese. While adding a poached egg on top enhances this delicious experience.
Recipe notes
In this particular recipe, what needs a little more attention is the poached eggs. The first egg may not be as beautiful as you wish, but I don’t want you to be discouraged. Let’s go for the next one. You should pay attention to the following while preparing:
- Add the eggs one by one to the pot. Unless you choose to try the method with the cling film. In this case we take a cup and lay the inside with a cling film. Then add olive oil and then the egg. Pull the cling film out of the cup and tie a knot near the egg. Add it in a pot of simmering water for 3-4 minutes. Ready!
- In case you stay true to the recipe and do not use a cling film then we use some vinegar. Adding vinegar to raw eggs for at least 2 minutes before cooking helps maintain its shape. Don’t skip this step.
- With or without a cling film, the water in which the egg will boil should simmer.
