Toast the Bread:
Start by heating a flat skillet over medium heat. Add a small amount of butter to the pan, and toast the whole wheat bread slices until they are golden and crispy on both sides. Set them aside once done. -
Cook the Eggs:
In another skillet, heat a bit of oil over medium-high heat. Crack the eggs into the skillet, ensuring the yolk remains intact. Lower the heat to cook the eggs gently, allowing the whites to set while keeping the yolk soft. Season with salt and pepper, and cook until the top layer of the yolk is set but still runny. Remove from heat. -
Assemble the Sandwich:
Take one of the toasted bread slices and spread a generous tablespoon of harissa sauce on it. Layer the fresh lettuce leaves, followed by the tomato slices and onion rings. Carefully place the fried egg on top of the vegetables. Finish by adding another slice of toasted bread smeared with more harissa sauce. -
Serve:
Cut the sandwich in half and serve immediately. For a more satisfying meal, pair this sandwich with a side of Garlic & Ginger Spiced Potato Wedges and a refreshing glass of Carrot Pineapple Orange Juice.
Tips and Variations:
- For extra flavor: Add a slice of cheese between the layers of veggies and eggs before closing the sandwich.
- Make it spicy: If you enjoy more heat, consider adding some chili flakes or a dash of hot sauce along with the harissa.
- Vegetable twist: You can also include avocado slices or sautéed bell peppers for an extra layer of texture and flavor.
This Egg and Harissa Sandwich is an ideal way to spice up your snack time, combining the richness of eggs with the punch of harissa, all encased in crispy, golden bread. It’s quick, easy, and bursting with flavor – the perfect fusion sandwich for any occasion.
