Ingredients

  • 4 eggs
  • salt to taste
  • garlic powder pinch
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 Tbsp. butter
  • 4 thick slices sourdough or country-style bread
  • 2 Tbsp. crème fraîche or sour cream *optional but good
  • 1 boneless cooked fish or freshly cooked trout, salmon, or cod
  • Hot sauce if you like it spicy
  • 1/2 lemon cut into wedges
  • 1 scallion thinly sliced on a diagonal - greens only
  • 2 cups arugula
  • 2 tsp. EVOO to toss with arugula

Instructions

  • Crack eggs into a medium bowl and add salt. Whisk well.
  • Squeeze juice from half into a medium bowl. Add arugula and drizzle with olive oil; season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat. Serve on the side.
  • Heat 2 Tbsp. butter in skillet over medium-low. Once butter is foaming, cook egg mixture, stirring with a heatproof rubber spatula in broad sweeping motions, until some curds begin to form but eggs are still runny, about 2 minutes. Stir in crème fraîche and cook, stirring occasionally, until eggs are barely set, about 2 minutes.
  • While eggs are cooking, toast bread, and butter the way you like it.
  • Spoon eggs over toast and top with fish, then squeeze juice over the fish. Season with pepper; scatter scallions on top.
  • You can add the fish cold, from the fridge, but I like to warm it up in a pan before adding. You can also use fresh trout. All good.
