Poached Eggs On Toast With Ramps Recipes

POACHED EGGS ON TOAST WITH RAMPS

Steps:

• Cut dark-green leaves from ramps and slice crosswise 1" thick; slice bulbs and red stems crosswise 1/4" thick.
• Heat butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add bulbs and stems, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring often, until beginning to soften, 5-8 minutes. Add tops and cook, stirring often, until soft, about 3 minutes.
• Meanwhile, bring 2" water to a boil in a large saucepan; reduce heat so water is at a gentle simmer and add vinegar. Crack an egg into a small bowl, then gently slide egg into water. Repeat with remaining eggs, waiting until whites of eggs in water are opaque before adding the next egg (about 30 seconds apart). Poach until whites are set but yolks are still runny, about 3 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer eggs to paper towels as they are done.
• Toast bread, brush with 2 tablespoons oil, and season with kosher salt. Spread toasts with goat cheese and top with ramps and eggs. Drizzle with more oil and season with sea salt and pepper.

EASY POACHED EGGS

Steps:

• In a 12-inch straight-sided skillet, heat 2 inches water over medium until bubbles cover the bottom and sides of pan. Crack each large egg into a separate small bowl (do not use eggs with broken yolks). When a few bubbles have broken the surface of the water, gently pour each egg into the pan, leaving room between them.
• Cook eggs, undisturbed, until white is just set and yolk is still runny, 3 to 4 minutes. Use a rubber spatula to gently release eggs from the bottom of pan, if necessary.
• Using a slotted spoon, remove eggs from water. If using immediately, blot the bottom of the spoon on a paper towel to remove excess water before serving.

POACHED EGGS ON AVOCADO & FETA TOAST

Steps:

• Fill a large saucepan with water, add the vinegar and bring to a hard boil over a high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat so the water is simmering, then use a spoon to swirl the water into a whirlpool. Crack in both eggs and cook for 2 1/2 mins.
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mash the avocado, feta, chilli flakes and lemon juice, and season well with black pepper. Toast the bread.
• Pile the avocado and feta on the toast, then put a poached egg on top of each.

CREAMED EGGS ON TOAST

Steps:

• Separate the egg whites from the egg yolks. Place the egg yolks into a bowl and mash with a fork. Chop the egg whites into small pieces and set aside.
• Melt the butter in a saucepan set over medium heat. Stir in flour until smooth. Gradually mix in the milk and chicken bouillon so that no lumps form and stir constantly until the mixture comes to a boil. Add the egg yolks and mix until dissolved. Stir in egg whites. Serve over toast and season with salt and white pepper.

FRIED EGGS AND RAMPS

Steps:

• Heat a cast iron skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil. When the oil is hot, add the ramps and season with salt and pepper.
• Push the ramps to the side and crack the eggs into the skillet. Season the eggs and cook sunny-side up for about 2 minutes. (Flip the eggs if you prefer them over easy.) Sprinkle with a pinch of red pepper flakes, if using, and serve immediately.
