Ingredients

  • 2 slice/s thick slices sourdough
  • 4 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 clove/s garlic, 1 halved, 1 thinly sliced
  • 300g peas in pods, shelled (about 150g shelled peas)
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 3 salad onions, thinly sliced
  • 1 tsp dried marjoram, plus extra to serve
  • ½ tsp mild chilli flakes or Cooks' Ingredients Pul Biber
  • 2 Waitrose British Blacktail Free Range Medium Eggs

Method

  1. Put a frying pan over a medium-high heat and brush the bread with 1 tbsp oil. Add to the frying pan and toast for 2 minutes on each side until golden. Transfer to 2 plates and rub the halved garlic all over the toasted bread; set aside.

  2. Pour about 500ml water into the frying pan, bring to the boil, tip in the peas and ½ tsp salt; boil for 3 minutes, then drain and return the frying pan to the heat. Add 2 tbsp oil, the sliced salad onions and sliced garlic; cook, stirring, for 1-2 minutes, then add the drained peas, marjoram, chilli flakes and the remaining ½ tsp salt. Use a potato masher or whisk to break the peas up a little, then divide between the slices of toast.

  3. Fry the eggs in the remaining 1 tbsp oil until cooked to your liking, then season and sprinkle over a little marjoram. Top each toast with an egg and serve straight away.

Cook’s tip

Use oregano in place of marjoram if that’s what you have in your cupboard.
