Ingredients 

  • 8 eggs
  • 4 burger buns
  • Extra virgin olive oil for drizzling
  • Salt to taste
  • 2 teaspoons vinegar
  • 2 avocados
  • 2 teaspoons lemon juice
  • 1 medium onion, finely chopped
  • 1 medium tomato, finely chopped
  • 1 medium cucumber, peeled and finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons fresh coriander leaves, chopped
  • Crushed black peppercorns to taste

Method

  1. To make each portion, halve 1 burger bun, drizzle a little extra virgin olive oil on each half, place them in the air fryer basket and cook at 180ºC for 4-5 minutes.
  2. Heat 2 cups of water in a deep non-stick pan, add salt and bring it to a boil. Add ½ tsp vinegar and mix well. Break 1 egg and drop it into the centre of the pan, and let it poach. Similarly, poach another egg. Transfer the prepared poached eggs to a plate.
  3. Take the bun halves out of the air fryer and place them on the worktop.
  4. Halve the avocado, scoop out the flesh of ½ avocado and put it into a bowl. Add ½ tablespoon lemon juice and mash with a fork.
  5. To make a salad, take an onion, tomato, cucumber, coriander leaves, salt, 1 tsp lemon juice and crushed peppercorns in another bowl and mix well.
  6. Keep the bun halves on a serving platter, spread some avocado mixture over each half, place a poached egg on each half, put ¼ salad mixture on one side and serve immediately.
  7. Make more portions in the same way.
