2 tablespoons olive oil
Juice of 1/2 a lemon
1/4 teaspoon cumin powder
Pinch of sea salt

For the Avocado Mix
1 ripe avocado
Pinch of sea salt
Pinch of black pepper powder

Dash of vinegar

For the Toast Assembly
1 slice multigrain sourdough
6 tablespoons beetroot hummus

Method

To make the beetroot hummus, blend the beetroot, chickpeas, olive oil, lemon juice, cumin powder, and salt until smooth.

For the avocado mix, mash the avocado with sea salt, black pepper, and lemon juice until well combined.

Poach the egg by bringing water and a dash of vinegar to a gentle boil, then reduce heat and poach the egg for about 3–4 minutes until the white is set but yolk remains runny.

To assemble, toast the multigrain sourdough. Spread the beetroot hummus over the toast, layer the avocado mix, top with the poached egg, and finish with a sprinkle of microgreens.
