Directions

  1. Toast the bread: Heat olive oil or butter in a non-stick pan over medium heat. Add the sourdough bread and toast until golden and crispy on both sides. Remove from the pan and set aside.
  2. Heat the chilli oil: In the same pan, add the chilli oil and heat gently over medium-low heat.
  3. Cook the eggs: Crack the eggs directly into the pan over the chilli oil. Sprinkle with chopped spring onion greens, shredded mozzarella, salt, and pepper to taste.
  4. Cook to preference: Cook until the egg whites are set and the edges are crispy. The yolks can be soft and runny or fully cooked, depending on your preference.
  5. Assemble: Carefully slide the eggs onto the toasted bread.
  6. Serve: Serve immediately and enjoy while hot and crispy!

Pro Tips

  • Adjust the heat: Use more or less chilli oil depending on your spice tolerance. You can also add red pepper flakes for extra kick.
  • Bread choice: Sourdough works beautifully, but any thick, sturdy bread will hold up well to the toppings.
  • Get the eggs crispy: Cook the eggs in the chilli oil until the edges are lacy and crisp for extra texture.
  • Add more toppings: Try adding avocado slices, a drizzle of hot honey, or a squeeze of lime for extra flavor.
  • Double it up: This recipe scales easily—just multiply the ingredients for more servings.
