Description
A simple yet elegant toast topped with creamy ricotta, perfectly cooked eggs, and a touch of seasoning, ideal for a quick breakfast or light meal.
Ingredients
Toast and Base
- 2 slices bread
- 1/2 cup ricotta cheese
Eggs and Cooking
- 2 eggs
- 1 tbsp olive oil
Seasoning and Toppings
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Chili flakes or herbs (optional)
Instructions
- Toast the bread: Toast the bread slices until they are golden and crisp to provide a sturdy base for the toppings.
- Spread the ricotta: Evenly spread the ricotta cheese over the warm toast, allowing it to soften slightly and create a creamy layer.
- Cook the eggs: Heat the olive oil in a pan over medium heat and cook the eggs to your preferred doneness—whether fried, scrambled, or poached.
- Assemble the toast: Place the cooked eggs carefully on top of the ricotta-covered toast slices.
- Season and garnish: Sprinkle salt, freshly ground pepper, and your choice of chili flakes or herbs over the eggs to enhance the flavor.
- Serve immediately: Enjoy the toast while warm for the best taste and texture.
Notes
- Use sourdough or whole-grain bread for best results and added texture.
- Add a drizzle of honey over the ricotta for a sweet twist.
- Top the toast with slices of avocado or fresh tomatoes for extra flavor and nutrition.
