Break the eggs, one at a time, into a ramekin or small bowl, then slide gently into the water. Cover the pan and continue to simmer for 2-3 minutes or until the eggs are cooked to your liking.

Toast the bread, drizzle over the olive oil then top with the avocado mixture. Place the rashers on top and finally a poached egg. Season the egg with a little salt, black pepper and a sprinkle of chilli flakes.
