Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Begin by preparing all the components for your brunch. It’s crucial to use a well-ripened avocado; it should be soft enough to mash easily. A perfectly ripe avocado will yield a creamy texture and delightful flavor.
Step 2
Place one fresh egg in a small saucepan and bring it to a boil over high heat. As the egg cooks, you can focus on preparing the other ingredients. This way, everything will be ready at the same time, ensuring optimal freshness and timing.
Step 3
Prepare your ripe avocado. You can slice it in half either vertically or horizontally, according to your preference. Ripe avocados tend to cling slightly to the knife. A helpful tip is to hold both halves firmly and gently pull the knife forward as you slice; this helps the avocado pieces stay together.
Step 4
To make the dressing, combine all the listed dressing ingredients in a small bowl. Whisk together the olive oil, minced onion, lemon juice, honey, balsamic vinegar, salt, and pepper until well blended. This creates a vibrant and flavorful dressing that perfectly complements the other ingredients.
Step 5
Now, it’s time to arrange your beautifully prepared ingredients on a plate. Start by creating a bed of fresh sprouts or microgreens on your plate. Next, artfully place the sliced avocado, the perfectly boiled egg (peeled and halved or whole), and your toasted sourdough bread. Sprinkle the pine nuts for a delightful crunch and nutty flavor.
Step 6
Generously drizzle the prepared zesty dressing over your arranged ingredients. For the finishing touch, grate a good amount of Grana Padano cheese over everything. Don’t be shy with the cheese – more cheese means a more visually appealing and flavorful dish!
Step 7
Finally, serve with a side of warm milk and a dollop of creamy Greek yogurt to complete your exquisite avocado brunch set. Enjoy this delightful, cafe-style brunch in the comfort of your own home!
