COMPLETE RECIPE
Ingredients & Instructions
Ingredients
Serves 1- 2 large eggs
- 2 tsp extra virgin olive oil
- ⅛ tsp dried parsley
- Finely grated zest of ⅛ lemon
- Small pinch flaky sea salt
- Ice, for cooling
HOW TO MAKE IT
Method — All Instructions
Mix the olive oil and dried parsley in a small bowl. Let stand for 5–10 minutes.
Bring enough water to a steady boil to cover the eggs by 2–3 cm.
Gently lower in the eggs and cook 6½ minutes for a softly thickened, creamy yolk.
Transfer eggs to ice water and cool for 5–8 minutes.
Crack all over and peel carefully, starting at the wider end if possible.
Spoon a little parsley oil onto the plate, halve the eggs, arrange cut-side up, then
finish with remaining oil, lemon zest, and flaky sea salt.
Serving idea: Enjoy on its own or with toasted gluten-free bread, roasted potatoes,
or a simple green salad.
