Sauteed Spinach on Toast with Fried Eggs
Recipe by Michael Weldon
Serves: 4
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 45 minutes
Ingredients
2 tbs Squeaky Gate extra virgin olive oil
½ onion, finely diced
1 clove garlic, minced
1 tsp Coles sea salt, plus more to taste
½ tsp Coles black pepper
½ tsp chilli flakes
1 bag Coles baby spinach
Juice and zest of ½ lemon
2 eggs
2 slices sourdough toast
Parmesan, grated
Fresh chives, finely chopped
Method
Heat a pan over medium heat. Add 1 tbs of extra virgin olive oil, followed by the diced onion and a pinch of sea salt. Cook until softened, then add the garlic and sauté until fragrant.
Add a small splash of extra virgin olive oil and stir through. Sprinkle in the chilli flakes and cracked black pepper, cooking for another minute.
Add half the bag of baby spinach, tossing to coat. Once slightly wilted, add the remaining spinach and continue to cook until tender.
Meanwhile, heat another small pan over medium heat and add a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil. Crack in the eggs and season the egg whites with salt and black pepper.
Toast the sourdough until golden.
Stir the spinach mixture once more, then plate up by placing the toast on a serving dish and layering the spinach on top. Grate lemon zest over the spinach.
Once the eggs are bubbling and crispy at the edges, place them on top of the spinach. Finish with grated parmesan and a sprinkle of fresh chives.
