Instructions
1
- Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7. Boil a pot of water for the eggs.
- Roughly chop the chives (use scissors if you prefer).
- Lay the bacon rashers in a single layer on a lined baking tray.
- Bake on the top shelf of your oven until golden brown and crispy, 10-15 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw meat. Cook bacon thoroughly.
TIP: You can also fry the bacon in the pan if you'd like.
2
- Add the vinegar to the water. Crack each egg (2 per person) into separate small bowls.
- Swirl the water with a spoon to create a whirlpool. Drop the eggs into the centre of the whirlpool. Lower the heat to a simmer.
- Poach until the white is firm, 2-3 mins. Remove each egg with a slotted spoon. Season with salt and pepper.
- Alternatively, you can fry the eggs (leave out the vinegar). Place a pan on medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.
- Fry until the white is cooked and the yolk is your desired firmness, 4-5 mins.
3
- While the eggs cook, pour the hollandaise into a small pot and gently warm through over medium heat.
- Warm the ciabattas in the oven for 2-3 mins.
- Halve the avocado and remove the pit. Scoop out the flesh onto a board. Thinly slice each half lengthways.
- Halve the ciabattas and divide between plates. Top with the bacon and avocado slices, followed by an egg.
- Pour over the hollandaise and finish with a scattering of chives.
