Method

  1. Bring two small pans of water to the boil: one for the peas, the other, at least 8 cm deep, with the vinegar for the eggs.
  2. When the pea water boils, salt it and cook the peas for 5 minutes, until tender; drain, keeping back a small ladleful of the cooking water.
  3. Blend the peas with the mint leaves, the oil, a pinch of salt and a little of the reserved water until smooth and thick; meanwhile put the wholemeal bread on to toast.
  4. Crack each egg into a cup; turn the heat down under the vinegar water until it barely simmers, make a whirlpool, slide in one egg at a time and cook for 3 minutes, until the white is set and the yolk soft; lift out with a slotted spoon.
  5. Spread the pea cream on the toast, lay the eggs on top and finish with a grind of pepper.
