Ingredients

• 2 pieces Large eggs
• 4 cups Water
• 1 tablespoon White vinegar
• 2 slices Whole-grain bread
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Fill a medium saucepan with 4 cups of water and add 1 tablespoon of white vinegar. Bring to a gently rolling boil over medium heat.

Step 2

While the water is heating, crack each egg individually into a small bowl or ramekin to ensure the yolks remain intact.

Step 3

Once the water reaches a gentle boil, reduce the heat to a simmer. Using a spoon, stir the water to create a light whirlpool effect in the center.

Step 4

Carefully slide each egg into the center of the whirlpool, allowing the egg whites to wrap around the yolks.

Step 5

Let the eggs poach for 3-4 minutes, adjusting the heat as necessary to maintain a gentle simmer.

Step 6

While the eggs are poaching, toast the whole-grain bread slices until they are golden brown.

Step 7

Once the eggs are cooked to your desired level of doneness, use a slotted spoon to gently remove them from the water, allowing excess water to drain.

Step 8

Place the poached eggs onto the toasted whole-grain bread slices.

Step 9

Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

Step 10

Garnish with fresh parsley before serving. Enjoy your low-fat poached eggs on toast!
