Addictive Mayo-Egg Toast: An Irresistibly Simple Recipe
Unlock the Secret to the Nation’s Favorite ‘Drug’-Like Toast: Easy 5-Minute Recipe
Today, I’m bringing you a recipe so simple yet so decadent, it’s rumored to be ‘the only drug the nation permits’ – the addictive toast! I saw this on Mangae Recipe and decided to try it out. This recipe is perfect for a quick snack or a delightful breakfast, offering a unique blend of savory and sweet flavors that will surely satisfy your cravings.
Ingredients
- 1 slice of bread
- 1.5 Tbsp mayonnaise
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp sugar
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Start with a slice of bread. Spread a thin, even layer of mayonnaise across the entire surface of the bread using a spoon or knife. Sprinkle the sugar evenly over the mayonnaise. This creates the sweet and savory base for our toast.
Step 2
Next, create a ‘frame’ for the egg using the mayonnaise. Pipe or spread the mayonnaise into a square shape in the center of the bread, leaving a border. This helps to contain the egg once it’s added.
Step 3
Carefully crack the egg directly into the mayonnaise frame. You’ll be surprised how perfectly the egg fits within the square you created! Try to keep the yolk intact for the best texture.
Step 4
To prevent the yolk from bursting during cooking and to ensure it cooks evenly, gently poke the yolk with the tip of a chopstick or toothpick about 5-6 times. Be gentle – you just want to break the membrane slightly.
Step 5
Place the prepared toast in the microwave and cook for exactly 1 minute. (Note: The original recipe suggested 1 minute 30 seconds to 2 minutes, but microwave timings can vary greatly.) If you cook it for too long, like I did at 1 minute 30 seconds, the egg will become fully cooked (overcooked). Check after 1 minute and adjust the time if needed, especially if you prefer a runnier yolk. Keep an eye on it to achieve your desired doneness!
Step 6
Honestly, while it’s called ‘addictive toast,’ it might not be *that* addictive for my palate. However, the combination of creamy mayonnaise, sweet sugar, and soft egg is undeniably delicious and quite unique. It’s different from a classic French toast, but worth trying if you’re curious! Give it a go and see if it becomes your new favorite.
