| Poached Eggs And Bacon With Spicy Tomato Salsa |
| 2 fresh tomatoes, seeded and finely chopped |
| ¼ red onion, finely chopped |
| 1 red chilli, seeds removed and finely chopped |
| juice of ½ lime |
| pinch of sugar |
| 1 Tbs chopped coriander, plus extra to garnish |
| 4 eggs, at room temperature |
| 4 slices bacon, fat trimmed |
| 4 English muffins, split |
| 1 cup mixed salad leaves |
|
| 1 |
To make the spicy salsa, combine the tomatoes, onion, chilli, lime juice, sugar and the tablespoon chopped coriander in a small bowl and set aside. |
| 2 |
Bring a large saucepan or deep frying pan of water to a simmer. Crack the eggs and gently slip them, one at a time, into the simmering water. Cook 3-4 minutes, or until the egg whites are opaque and the yolk is still quite soft (or until cooked for your liking). Carefully lift out the eggs with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. |

In a medium skillet, over medium-high heat, cook the bacon until crisp. Meanwhile, toast the muffin halves. |
| 4 |
To serve, layer the muffins with a handful of salad leaves, the bacon and top with a poached egg and a spoonful of tomato salsa. Garnish with coriander if desired. |
