Crispy eggs with a summer salad recipe
- 5 eggs
- 100 g (3.5oz) Japanese breadcrumbs (you can use normal breadcrumbs if you dont have Japanese)
- 100 g (3.5oz) plain flour
- 100 g (3.5oz) peas
- 100 g (3.5oz) beans
- 2 sprigs of tarragon
- 1 bowl salad (enough salad leaves for 4 plates)
- Boil 4 eggs in a pan for 3 minutes (from fridge), or 2 minutes (from room temperature).
- Remove from the pan.
- Gently tap the egg to crack the shell, and then place in cold water.
- After a few minutes in the cold water, peel the shell off (it should come off easily).
- Roll the eggs in flour, then whisked egg, then Japanese breadcrumbs.
- Fry in vegetable oil at 180C for approx 1 minute until they are browned.
- You can either do this in a saucepan, or if in a frying pan, gently baste them with the hot oil and turn them every 20 seconds until they are browned and crispy.
- Pan fry the peas and beans with a pinch of finely chopped tarragon.
- These eggs are crispy on the outside and soft on the inside.
- To serve: scatter the plate with a selection of salad leaves, then the peas and beans.
- Slice the eggs in half and place on top
