Eggs Bagel

• 1 whole egg
• 2 egg whites
• 1 wholemeal bagel (or 2 slices of toast bread, or a sandwich thin)
• 1 rasher lean back bacon, grilled
• 1 slice tomato, grilled
• 2-3 slices pickled cucumber (optional)
• 1 tsp burger sauce, or your favourite sauce (optional)
• 1 thin slice cheese (cheddar, protein cheese or a melting cheese), optional — adds about 40 kcal
• Pinch of salt and pepper
• Oil spray, for the pan

Method

1. 1Whisk the whole egg and egg whites together with a pinch of salt and pepper.
2. 2Heat a non-stick frying pan with a light spray of oil over medium heat. Pour in the egg mixture and cook gently, without stirring, until almost set on top.
3. 3Split the bagel in half and lay both cut sides face-down directly on top of the egg in the pan.
4. 4Once the bagel has picked up a little colour and the egg underneath is fully set, flip the whole pan contents over so the bagel is now on the bottom.
5. 5Fold the egg over to fit inside the bagel, then transfer to a board and lift off the top half.
6. 6Layer the bacon, grilled tomato and pickled cucumber (if using) over the egg, then add the sauce and cheese if using.
7. 7Close with the top half of the bagel, press down gently to hold it together like a burger, and enjoy warm.
