Ingredients
  

  • 1 avocado
  • 1 slice sourdough bread
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tablespoon chili garlic oil Sichuan style recommended
  • 1 handful pickled carrots
  • Flaky salt to finish
  • Salt pepper, and lemon juice (for seasoning avocado)

Equipment

  • Medium cast iron or non-stick skillet
  • Fork or spoon (for mashing avocado)
  • Paper Towels
  • Spatula or fork

Method
 

  1. Scoop out avocado and mash lightly. Season with salt, pepper, and lemon juice to taste. Set aside.
  2. Heat a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add olive oil or a small drizzle if needed. When hot, add sourdough bread and cook on both sides until golden and crispy. Remove and set aside.
  3. Add chili garlic oil to the pan, spreading it evenly. Crack the egg directly into the pan over the oil. Fry for about 2 minutes until the edges crisp up but yolk is still runny. Remove the egg carefully onto a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
  4. Plate the toasted bread, spread mashed avocado evenly on top. Layer pickled carrots over the avocado, then gently place the chili crisp fried egg on top. Drizzle any remaining chili oil from the pan over the dish. Finish with flaky salt. Serve immediately.

Notes

Storage: Serve right away, the fried egg and toast lose their crisp edge fast. The pickled carrots are the exception, keep them jarred in the fridge for a couple weeks and pull from them whenever you make this again.
