Ingredients
  

  • 4 large eggs Fresh eggs yield the best flavor and texture.
  • 1 tablespoon chives Finely chopped, adds a mild onion flavor.
  • 1/4 teaspoon coarse salt Essential for bringing out natural flavors.
  • 1 tablespoon butter Unsalted, provides richness and helps cook the eggs.
  • 1/2 cup ricotta cheese Creamy and smooth, adds wonderful texture.
  • 2 pieces sourdough bread Toasted, opt for a hearty loaf for best results.

Method
 

  1. Prepare Your Ingredients: Start by gathering all your ingredients together to streamline the cooking process.
  2. Cook the Eggs: In a medium skillet over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter until it’s bubbling gently. Crack the large eggs into the pan, sprinkle them with coarse salt, and cook until the whites are set but the yolks remain runny, about three minutes.
  3. Toast the Bread: While your eggs are cooking, place two slices of sourdough bread in a toaster or under a broiler until they’re golden brown and crisp.
  4. Assemble Your Toasts: Once your bread is toasted, spread half a cup of ricotta cheese evenly over each slice. Top with the perfectly cooked eggs, spooning any leftover butter from the pan over them for extra flavor.
  5. Garnish and Serve: Finish by sprinkling finely chopped chives on top of each toast for an added layer of freshness. Serve immediately while hot.
