Ingredients

Servings: 4
  • 2 Sweet potatoes (about 450 g each)
  • 3-4 Tbsp Olive oil
  • 7-10 Tbsp Salt
  • 7-10 Tbsp Pepper
  • 2-3 TABLESPOONS hulled sesame seed
  • 75 g Lamb's lettuce
  • 2 ripe avocados
  • 4 TABLESPOONS Lime juice
  • 2 TABLESPOONS White wine vinegar
  • 8 fresh eggs
  • 8 Disc/s smoked salmon (about 200 g)
  • baking paper

Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven (electric cooker: 200 °C/circulating air: 180 °C/gas: see manufacturer). Wash sweet potatoes, cut lengthwise into slices. Brush the slices with 2-3 tbsp. oil, salt them and place them next to each other on a baking tray lined with baking paper. Bake in a hot oven for about 25 minutes.

  2. 2

    Meanwhile roast sesame seeds in a pan without fat while turning, remove. Clean, wash, shake dry and chop the lamb's lettuce. Mix half sesame seeds, lettuce and 1 tbsp. oil in a bowl. Cut avocados in half and remove seeds. Remove the flesh and crush finely with a fork. Stir in lime juice.

  3. 3

    For the poached eggs, boil 2 litres of water with vinegar in a pot. Stir vigorously with a fork in the water to form a strudel. Beat the eggs one by one in a cup, add 2 of each in the water one after the other. Carefully place the egg white around the egg yolk with two tablespoons. Let the eggs simmer for 3-4 minutes (do not boil!), then lift them out and let them drain (see poaching trick on page 30).

  4. 4

    Pile the avocado cream, salmon, lettuce and eggs onto the sweet potato slices. Sprinkle with remaining sesame and pepper.

  5. 5

    Using a skimmer, remove the poached eggs one by one from the cooking water and place in warm salted water until serving.
