    Creamy avocado and horseradish cups with scrambled eggs

    Serves: 2
    Cooking Time: 30 mins

    Ingredients

    • Toasted bread cups

    • 4 slices white bread, crusts removed
    • Creamy avocado

    • 1 avocado
    • 5ml (1 tsp) horseradish cream
    • 45ml (3 tbsp) crème fraîche
    • salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
    • 60ml (¼ cup) milk
    • 4 large eggs, lightly beaten
    • salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
    • spring onions, chopped, to serve

    Instructions

    1

    Preheat the oven to 200ºC.

    2

    For the toasted bread cups, flatten the slices of bread with a rolling pin. Loosely press each slice into the openings of a muffin tin. Bake until golden, about 5 minutes.

    3

    For the creamy avocado, whisk all the ingredients with a hand blender until smooth.

    4

    Whisk the milk into the eggs and season. Scramble in a frying pan over low heat until cooked and creamy.

    5

    Fill the toasted cups with the creamy avocado, sprinkle with the spring onion and serve with the scrambled eggs.

    Notes

    To drink: To match the richness of the avocado, the bite of the horseradish and the texture of the scrambled eggs, one of our great South African sauvignon blancs will do really well. Try Fleur du Cap, Lomond, Tokara or De Grendel.
