Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 large very ripe tomato
  • High-quality tasting olive oil
  • Squeeze of lemon or lime juice
  • Sea salt flakes (preferably Maldon)
  • 1 – 2 eggs
  • 2 slices of crusty white bread
  • A few basil leaves for garnish

Instructions

  1. Using a box grater, grate the tomato into a bowl. Discard any leftover tomato skin.
  2. Add a good drizzle of olive oil followed by a squeeze of lemon or lime juice. Season with sea salt flakes. Taste to make sure it’s to your liking. Add more oil, citrus or salt if needed.
  3. Heat some oil in a frying pan and when nearly smoking, crack in the egg or eggs. Fry until the edges are crispy and the white is set. Do not flip. Season with salt.
  4. Toast bread. Drizzle with olive oil. For extra flavour, rub the bread with a fresh garlic clove that’s been cut in half to expose the inside. Sprinkle with salt.
  5. Pour the grated tomato mix into a bowl. Top with the fried egg and some basil leaves. Serve with toasted bread.
