Agretti is a plant that is often still met with curiosity and scepticism. I love it! Buy some! It's healthy and light, and wonderfully quick to prepare and cook. And it goes with lots of things. A classic is agretti with spaghetti. However, agretti also tastes delicious with a poached egg on toast.

Ingredients

for 4 person

Bread
4 slice bread
garlic clove, cut in half
Agretti
1 tbsp olive oil
300 g agretti
¼ tsp salt
Eggs
1 litre water
3 tbsp white wine vinegar

How it's done

Bread

Without adding any oil, toast the bread in a non-stick frying pan for approx. 2 mins. on each side. Rub the bread with the garlic, set aside the bread and garlic.

Agretti

Heat the oil in the same pan with the reserved garlic. Add the agretti, season with salt, cook for approx. 10 mins., stirring occasionally. Remove the garlic, set aside the agretti.

Eggs

Bring the water and vinegar to the boil in a pan, reduce the heat. Crack the eggs into a small cup, one at a time, and carefully slide into the simmering water, cook for approx. 4 mins. at just below the boil. Remove with a tea strainer, drain. Place the agretti on top of the bread, serve the poached eggs on top, season.
