75 g 75 grated cheddar cheese
2 2 eggs
1 1 bagel, split in half
1/4 cup 1/4 cream cheese
Handful fresh rocket
1 tbsp 1 finely chopped chives
Pinch Pinch chilli flakes
Pinch Pinch flaked salt
Directions
- Bring a saucepan of water to a boil over medium-high heat. Gently lower the eggs, and boil for 8-10 minutes until hard-boiled. Immediately transfer the eggs to iced water to shock the cooking process, and peel when cool enough to handle. Cut into halves.
- Divide the cheese into four portions. Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat, and arrange portions of cheese into a mound in the pan, ensuring they are well spaced apart. Don’t overcrowd the pan – cook in batches if needed. Allow the cheese to just melt, before placing an egg half cut-size down over each melted cheese portion. Cook for 3-4 minutes until golden underneath, before flipping and cooking for another 2 minutes until golden.
- Spread both cut sides of the bagel with the cream cheese. Top each bagel half with the rocket, and add the crispy eggs on top. Sprinkle over the chives, chilli flakes and salt. Enjoy warm.
