Sumac-spiced beans, avocado and poached egg bowl

-

Welcome the weekend with this brunch. You will be full till at least lunch with beans, tomato, egg and avo.

Preparatio­n time 10 mins Cooking time 15 mins Serves 2

1 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil

1 small brown onion, finely diced 400g can crushed tomatoes

1 tsp sumac, plus extra, to serve 420g can baked beans Sea-salt flakes and freshly ground

black pepper, to season Pinch fine salt

1 tsp white vinegar

2 free-range eggs

60g Greek-style feta, crumbled 6 cherry tomatoes, sliced thinly

½ cup mixed leaves (baby spinach

and red beetroot leaves used here) 1 small avocado, cut into thin

wedges

4 slices wholegrain sourdough,

toasted

STEP 1 Heat oil in a large non-stick frying pan over a medium heat. Add onion and cook, stirring, for 5 minutes or until soft. Stir in crushed tomatoes and sumac. Cook for 5 minutes or until slightly reduced. Stir in beans and cook, stirring occasional­ly for 5 minutes or until hot. Season.

STEP 2 Meanwhile, to poach eggs, pour water into a medium saucepan until 6cm deep. Set over a high heat and bring to the boil. Reduce heat to a low simmer so there are only a few bubbles breaking on the surface. Add fine salt and vinegar. Break 1 egg into a cup. Use a spoon to swirl water in pan, creating a vortex, then carefully slide egg into water, in the centre of the saucepan. The egg will swirl, forming a round shape. Repeat with second egg. Poach for 3 minutes for a soft yolk. Use a slotted spoon to remove eggs from water and drain on a paper towel-lined plate.

STEP 3 Spoon bean mixture into bowls, top each with a poached egg, a little feta, cherry tomatoes, mixed leaves and avocado. Sprinkle with a little extra sumac and season. Serve with toast.
