Ingredients

  • 2 whole Plain Bagels
  • 4 whole Eggs
  • 1 bunch Baby English Spinach Leaves
  • 1 jar Goat Cheese
  • 1/2 cups Balsamic Vinegar
  • 1 package Pine Nuts
  • 1 cup Freshly Grated Parmesan Cheese

Method

  • First, prepare the balsamic vinegar. Pour into small saucepan and simmer gently over low heat until reduced by half, and is syrupy.
  • Second, toast the pine nuts in a frying pan over low heat. Just heat the pan, throw the pine nuts in, stir until they start to brown, then set aside to cool.
  • Cook the spinach. I prefer to put the leaves inside a microwave-safe plastic bag with a splash of water, then microwave on high for a minute until half-wilted. Set aside.
  • Poach the eggs. If you're really clever you could do this with a pot of simmering water but if you're me you'll use your electric egg cooker. Once done, set aside and keep warm.
  • Toast the bagels lightly. Spread each one with a generous helping of goat's cheese, top with some spinach, then the egg, then some grated cheese. Drizzle the reduced balsamic vinegar decoratively around the bagel on a plate, sprinkle with the pine nuts and serve immediately.
