Avocado Smash on Kumara Stack
Serves 4 | Gluten Free
Ingredients:
- 2 medium to large red kumara, cut into 2cm slices
- 1 Tbsp butter
- 1⁄2 cup frozen peas
- 2 medium hass avocados, peeled
- 2 Tbsp olive oil
- 2 lemons
- Pinch salt
- Pinch pepper
- 8 organic eggs
- 1 Tbsp white wine vinegar
- 1 fillet smoked salmon, cut into portions
- 2 cups rocket, to serve
- Freshly chopped basil, to serve
- 1 Tbsp dukkah, to serve
Directions:
- For the kumara stack, preheat the oven to 200C on fan bake.
- Arrange kumara on a lined baking tray, and spoon a dollop of butter on each slice. You’ll need about 12 slices altogether, allowing for 3 slices per person.
- Pop the kumara in the oven and bake for 20 minutes or until lightly golden.
- For the avocado smash, place peas into a small bowl, cover with hot water and leave to sit for 5 minutes.
- Place the avocados, drained peas, 1 Tbsp olive oil, a squeeze of half a lemon, a pinch of salt and pepper, and mash together with a fork until it forms a chunky consistency. Set aside.
- For the eggs, fill a medium-sized pot with at least 5cm of water and bring to a simmer.
- Crack each egg open, and slowly tip into the simmering water, allowing them to cook for 3-4 minutes. Adding a splash of vinegar may help keep the eggs together.
- To serve, place three slices of kumara on each plate. Layer with avocado smash, followed by two eggs and salmon. Place rocket on the side with a slice of lemon, and sprinkle over dukkah, salt and pepper, basil and a drizzle of olive oil to finish. Et Voila!
