Ingredients
| Egg | 1 piece/s |
| Avocado | 1 piece/s |
| Peanut butter | 1 tablespoon/s (tbsp) |
| Water | 0.5 litre (l) |
Method
- Fill a coffee mug halfway with hot water.
- Place the cling film in the mug and crack an egg in that. Use the tip of a toothpick to gently poke a small hole in the yolk. This allows steam to escape during the cooking process, so your microwave poached egg doesn’t explode.
- Seal the cling film at the top by twisting the ends together.
- Place this cling film-wrapped egg into the cup of water. Make sure there is enough water in the mug to cover the egg and microwave for 40 to 60 seconds on high.
- Remove the egg out of the mug and undo the cling film.
- Spread the peanut butter on top of the muffin. Put a sliced avocado and carefully drop the poached egg on top. Sprinkle some salt and pepper and serve.
