You will need:
200g tinned anchovy fillets
2 Stalks of Rosemary
1/2 tsp Chilli Flakes
100g Soft Butter
Eggs (1 per person)
Sourdough Bread
Salt
Chopped Parsley
Method:
Take the anchovy fillets out of the oil and place in a pestle and mortar.
Remove the rosemary leaves from the stalk, chop finely, and add to the anchovies. Then add the chilli flakes and blend together.
In a bowl, mix the soft butter with the anchovy mix.
To make the eggs, place the eggs into a pot of boiling water and simmer for 6 minutes.
Remove the eggs from the water, gently tap the side with the back of a teaspoon to dint and slightly crack the shell. Then place them all into a bowl of iced water. Leave for a minute and then remove and peel.
To assemble, toast the sourdough, spread on the anchovy butter, and slice the egg into quarters on top. Season the egg with a little salt and sprinkle with some chopped parsley.
Tip: Save the leftover anchovy butter to melt on top of cooked fish, steak, or lamb for an easy and delicious dinner. Yum!
