Method

1. Switch on the waffle iron so it heats up properly.
2. Peel the sweet potato and grate it on the coarse side of the grater; squeeze it in your hands or in a tea towel to remove excess water, so the waffle turns crisp.
3. In a bowl, mix the sweet potato with one egg, the rice flour and a pinch of salt until the mixture holds together.
4. Grease the hot iron with a few drops of oil, spread the mixture in an even layer, close and cook for 7–8 minutes, until the waffle is golden, crisp and comes away easily.
5. Meanwhile, heat the remaining oil in a small frying pan over a medium heat, crack in the second egg and fry for 3–4 minutes, until the white is set and the yolk still runny; season lightly with salt.
6. Slice the avocado thinly; serve the waffle topped with the egg and avocado, a sprinkle of paprika and a grind of black pepper.
