The Way

Toast the sourdough until golden and crisp — a thin brush of olive oil first makes it glow.
Halve the avocado, slice it thin, and fan it over the toast. A squeeze of lemon keeps the green alive.
Poach the egg: barely-simmering water, a splash of vinegar, swirl a gentle vortex, slide the egg in. About 3 quiet minutes — whites set, yolk still liquid gold.
Lift the egg onto the avocado. Season it like you mean it: flaky salt, pepper, chili flakes.
Finish with a ribbon of olive oil and the microgreens. Then break the yolk. That's the moment.

midnight tip — don't rush the poach. three quiet minutes, no touching.
