Ingredients
  

2 large eggs

1 ripe avocado, mashed

100g smoked salmon

2 whole grain English muffins, split in half

1 tablespoon white wine vinegar

1 tablespoon butter

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh dill, for garnish

A squeeze of lemon juice

Instructions
 

Prepare the Poaching Water: In a medium saucepan, fill it with about 3 inches of water. Bring it to a gentle simmer and add the white wine vinegar. The vinegar helps the egg whites to set quickly.

    Poach the Eggs: Crack one egg into a small bowl. Using a spoon, create a gentle whirlpool in the simmering water and carefully drop the egg into the center. Cook for 3-4 minutes for a runny yolk or longer based on desired doneness. Repeat for the second egg.

      Toast the English Muffins: While the eggs are poaching, toast the English muffin halves until golden brown. Spread a little butter on each half while still warm.

        Assemble the Benedict: On each toasted muffin half, spread a generous layer of the mashed avocado. Top with slices of smoked salmon, then carefully place the poached eggs on top.

          Season and Garnish: Season the assembled Eggs Benedict with salt, freshly cracked black pepper, and a squeeze of lemon juice for brightness. Garnish with fresh dill.

            Serve Immediately: Enjoy your gourmet egg benedict right away while the eggs are still warm and runny!
