Avocado & Black Bean Eggs
Avocado & Black Bean Eggs
- Prep - 5 mins | Cook - 5 mins
- Serves 2
INGREDIENTS
- 2 tsp rapeseed oil
- 1 red chilli
- deseeded and thinly sliced
- 1 large garlic clove
- sliced
- 2 large eggs
- 400g can black beans
- ½ x 400g can cherry tomatoes
- ¼ tsp cumin seeds
- 1 small avocado
- halved and sliced
- handful fresh, chopped coriander
- 1 lime
- cut into wedges
METHOD
- Step 1 - Heat the oil in a large non-stick frying pan. Add the chilli and garlic and cook until softened and starting to colour. Break in the eggs on either side of the pan. Once they start to set, spoon the beans (with their juice) and the tomatoes around the pan and sprinkle over the cumin seeds. You’re aiming to warm the beans and tomatoes rather than cook them.
- Step 2 - Remove the pan from the heat and scatter over the avocado and coriander. Squeeze over half of the lime wedges. Serve with the remaining wedges on the side for squeezing over.

Ingredients 700 g grass-fed beef strips (sirloin, flank, or rump steak) 4 large portobello mushrooms (approx. 400 g total) 8 medium carrots, peeled and halved lengthwise (about 600 g) 2 bunches broccolini (approx. 400 g) 6½ tbsp olive oil total (≈ 97 mL) (2 tbsp for beef + 2 tbsp for mushrooms + 1½ tbsp for carrots + 1 tbsp for broccolini) 1 tbsp butter (14 g) 2 cloves garlic, minced (6 g) 1 tbsp fresh rosemary or thyme, chopped (optional) 2 tsp salt total (≈ 12 g) (½ tsp for beef + ½ tsp for mushrooms + ½ tsp for carrots + ½ tsp for broccolini) 1¼ tsp black pepper total (≈ 5 g) 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar (optional, 15 mL) 1 tsp honey or maple syrup (optional, 7 g) Instructions 1. Roast the carrots and mushrooms Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F) . Line a baking tray with parchment paper. Toss carrots with olive oil, salt, pepper, and honey/maple syrup if using. Spread on half of the tray. Place the portobello mushrooms on the other half, drizzle with olive oil and balsamic (if using), and season with salt and pepper. Roast for 25–30 minutes , turning once halfway through. Mushrooms should be tender and juicy; carrots caramelized and golden. 2. Grill the beef While vegetables roast, heat a grill pan or barbecue over high heat . Toss beef strips with olive oil, garlic, herbs, salt, and pepper. Grill for 2–3 minutes per side , or until cooked to your liking (medium-rare to medium recommended). Rest for a few minutes before serving to keep tender and juicy. 3. Steam and fry the broccolini Bring a small pot of water to a boil, and lightly steam broccolini for 2–3 minutes until bright green. Drain well. Heat butter and olive oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat . Add the broccolini and sauté for 2–3 minutes , seasoning with salt and pepper until slightly crisp on the edges. 4. Serve Plate each portion with a serving of grilled beef strips, a whole roasted mushroom, a few roasted carrots, and a generous side of buttery broccolini. Drizzle any beef or mushroom juices over the top for extra flavor. Optional Garnish Sprinkle with fresh parsley or thyme before serving. Add a squeeze of lemon over the broccolini for brightness.
