This came from http://www.thekitchn.com/ as a breakfast recipe, but I served it for dinner and I think I'd prefer that to breakfast.
Avocado
and Egg Flat Breads
For the dough:3/4 cups (6 ounces) warm water
1 teaspoon active-dry or instant yeast
2 cups (10 ounces) unbleached all-purpose flour (plus or minus)
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
Toppings:
1 large Hass avocado
1 tablespoon finely chopped cilantro
1 teaspoons lime juice
1/8 teaspoon salt
4 large eggs
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
Hot sauce, for serving (optional)
1 tablespoon finely chopped cilantro
1 teaspoons lime juice
1/8 teaspoon salt
4 large eggs
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
Hot sauce, for serving (optional)
In mixing bowl combine water and
yeast and let bubble. Add salt and slowly
add flour until you have a good dough consistency (we all know what that is
right?). Knead in mixer for about 5
minutes. Let rest.
In a medium bowl add pitted and
peeled avocado, cilantro, lime juice and salt. Mash with a fork until smooth
with a few chunks of avocado. Taste and adjust seasoning. (Depending on the
size of your avocado, you may need more salt or lime juice.) Set aside.
Divide the dough into 4 equal
pieces. On a well-floured cutting board, roll each piece into a thin, 6-inch
circle. (If the dough keeps springing back as you roll it, let it rest for a
few minutes to relax the gluten and try again.)
Heat a well-seasoned cast iron
skillet (see note) over medium-high heat until very hot. Pour in a small amount
of oil and place one of the dough circles in the center of the skillet. Cook
for 1-2 minutes, until the underside is browned and the top surface is bubbly.
Flip and cook other side until browned, pressing down with a spatula if the
dough puffs up off the bottom of the pan. It may be charred in spots, which is
fine. Remove to a plate and repeat with remaining dough circles.
Spread 1/4 of the avocado mixture
onto each cooked piece of dough.
Fry eggs to desired doneness and
place each one on top of each flat bread piece. Serve immediately, with or
without a drizzle of hot sauce.
Additional
Notes
- The dough can be cooked up to 1 day ahead and stored in an airtight container. (It will be softer than when freshly made.) Warm in the oven or on a skillet before adding the toppings.
