Spicy Baked Stuffed Avocado

Ingredients

  • 2 avocados
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 handful cilantro
  • 1 green onion (finely chopped)
  • 1 tablespoon harissa (optional)
  • 1/4 teaspoon chili flakes
  • 1 teaspoon sesame seeds
  • 1/2 lime, squeezed
  • 1 pinch sea salt

Method

  1. Begin by heating your oven to 400°F.
  2. Halve the avocados and carefully remove a small amount of flesh from the centre of each half to create a hollow, ensuring you do not cut through the skin.
  3. Spread a thin layer of harissa inside each avocado hollow.
  4. Crack an egg into each prepared hollow, aiming to place the yolk inside while allowing the egg white to flow over the avocado and onto the baking tray.
  5. Season each one with a pinch of salt and place in the oven to bake for 10 to 15 minutes.
  6. Remove the baked avocados from the oven and garnish with the chopped cilantro, green onion, chili flakes, sesame seeds, and a squeeze of fresh lime juice before serving.
