- 1 slice Artisan bread or white bread
- 1 tsp Basil pesto
- 2 tsp Mayonnaise
- 1/2 Lemon juice
- 1 Tomato
- 1 Egg
- 1 tbsp Vegetable oil
- 1 slice Hard parmesan cheese
- 1 leaf Fresh sage
Instructions
- Start off by toasting your bread until it is light brown.
- Make the basil pesto aioli by mixing 1 teaspoon basil pesto (store bought) with 2 teaspoons of mayonnaise (store bought) and a squeeze of lemon juice. Generously smear the aioli onto the toast making sure to cover the entire slice.
- Thinly slice the tomato and place a few pieces onto the toast.
- To make the over easy egg: preheat a frying pan and add the oil. Once hot, crack open the egg into the pan and let it fry until it can slide smoothly over the surface of the pan when moved around. Flip the egg over and let it fry for a few more seconds then remove it from the pan and place it onto the toast.
- Chop up the sage leaf and grate parmesan cheese. Sprinkle over the egg.
- Finish off with a pinch of salt and pepper.
