Avocado Toast with Pickled Onions

For Pickled Onions:

• 2 medium red onions (or 3 small ones)

• 1 1/4 cup (300 ml) water

• 1 1/4 cup (300 ml) white vinegar

• 3 tbsp  sugar of choice (see notes)

• 1 tbsp sea salt

• 1/4-1/2 tsp red pepper flakes (optional)

Section 2: Directions

Directions should always be short and to the point.

1. Boil some eggs in water for 8 to 10 mins. Allow to cool in water and/or the fridge

2. Place bread of choice in toaster or in a pan with some butter

3. Smash avocado in a bowl and spread over the toast

4. Top with grated eggs, pickled onions, salt and pepper, and hot sauce (optional to add other spices!)

5. Enjoy!

For pickled onions:

1. In a saucepan, heat the water on the stove, turn off the heat before it starts simmering, set aside.

2. Slice the onions thinly (into rings or half-moons) with a knife, or use a mandoline. Transfer the sliced onions to a large (750 ml) mason jar (or use 2-3 smaller jars).

3. Add the salt, red pepper flakes (if using), sugar of choice, and white vinegar to the warm water. Give it a good stir and wait until the sugar and salt dissolve.

4. Pour the mixture into the mason jar, over the onions. Press them down gently with a spoon, close the lid, and transfer the jar to your fridge. You can try them after just 30 minutes, however, I prefer to let them marinate overnight for best results.

5. Enjoy on avocado toast, falafel, tacos, burgers, pizza, and more!
