    Steak & egg breakfast bruschetta

    Breakfast
    By Jezza-Rae Larsen Serves: 4
    Prep Time: 10 minutes Cooking Time: 20 minutes Total Time: 30 minutes

    Ingredients

    • 2 tbsp olive oil
    • 400-500 g rump steak
    • 2 whole garlic cloves, crushed
    • 5 thyme sprigs, stripped
    • 1 tbsp butter
    • 500 ml boiling water
    • 8 eggs
    • 1 tbsp white vinegar
    • 8 thick slices French bread
    • 2 medium avocados
    • 10 g wild rocket
    • Dressing
    • ½ cup plain yoghurt
    • ¼ cup olive oil
    • ¼ cup smooth Dijon mustard
    • 3 – 4 tbsp honey, to taste
    • 2 tbsp lemon juice
    • 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar or lemon juice
    • 1 tsp crushed garlic
    • ½ tsp salt
    • ¼ tsp ground black pepper

    Instructions

    1

    GLAZE a large frying pan with oil over medium-high heat. Place the rump steak in the pan, with crushed garlic cloves, thyme and butter. Cook evenly for 2-3 minutes on both sides, keep it a little bit longer on the fatty side to get a nice crisp and set aside to let it rest. Do not slice yet.

    For the poached eggs

    2

    POUR 500 ml boiling water and vinegar into a small pot and bring to a simmer. Once the water starts boiling, reduce the heat to low. Crack open the eggs one at a time into separate ramekins or egg poaching cups.

    3

    CAREFULLY slide the eggs one at a time into the water. For a firm white and runny yolk, you’ll want to poach for 3-4 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon once done to your liking and set aside.

    For the dressing

    4

    WHISK all the ingredients together until combined. Add more honey if you prefer a sweeter dressing.

    To assemble

    5

    TOAST the bread slices. Top with avocado, wild rocket, steak slices and poached egg.

    6

    FINISH breakfast bruschetta off with creamy dressing and enjoy!
