WAH Tomato is the gentle one in the family — sweet, mellow, with just a hint of warmth. It's the jar I reach for in the morning when my head is fragile and I need something kind. Good bread, good butter, a runny yolk, and a quiet spoon of tomato chilli oil. This is breakfast as therapy.
Method
- 1
Toast the sourdough until deep golden — you want it strong enough to hold the egg without going soggy.
- 2
While it toasts, melt a knob of butter in a small non-stick pan over medium heat. Crack the egg in.
- 3
Cook for 2 minutes until the white is set but the yolk is still wobbling. Baste the white with hot butter if you want it lacy at the edges.
- 4
Butter the toast generously while it's still hot. Slide the egg on top.
- 5
Spoon WAH Tomato over the egg in a slow, deliberate way. Flaky salt, black pepper, chives. Sit down. Breathe.
WAH tip
Add half an avocado, sliced, for the full Sunday treatment. Or a slice of cured ham if you're rebuilding.
