Directions
- Put the avocado, 2 tablespoons of lemon juice, and garlic in a food processor and process until smooth and creamy.
- Fill a wide saucepan with boiling water from the kettle. Bring it to a very light simmer over a medium heat, add a pinch of sea salt.
- Crack one of your eggs into a cup.
- Use a knife to swirl the water in a wide circular motion to create a whirl pool and gently pour the egg from the cup into the water in one fluid movement. Repeat with the other egg. Depending on your pan, a really soft poached egg should take around 2 minutes and a soft to firm one will need 4 minutes (it depends on the size of the eggs and whether you're using them straight from the fridge). To check whether they're done, remove one carefully from the pan with a slotted spoon and give it a gentle push with a teaspoon. If it looks or feels too soft put it back and give the eggs a minute or two more in the water to firm up.
- Meanwhile, grill the bacon until crispy.
- To serve, place the eggs on top of two tomato slices and top with the avocado sauce and crispy bacon.
- Season with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper.
