Upgraded Open-Faced Toast
Elevate Your Brunch: A Delicious Open-Faced Toast Recipe, Inspired by Yoo Yeon-seok’s Coffee Friends Toast, Made with the Happycall Ideo Air Fryer
Enjoy a simple yet delightful meal for lunch! This hearty and delicious open-faced toast is perfect for a quick and satisfying bite. The combination of cheese, bacon, and egg creates a rich and flavorful experience.
Main Ingredients- 2 slices of bread
- 1 Tbsp mayonnaise
- 1 slice cheddar cheese
- 2 strips bacon
- 20g mozzarella cheese
- 1 egg
- Pinch of salt
- Pinch of black pepper
- Pinch of parsley flakes
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, let’s create the signature opening! Take one slice of bread and carefully cut out a circle from the center using a cup or cookie cutter. This ‘hole’ will hold the egg beautifully without it spreading.
Step 2
On the other slice of bread (the one without the hole), spread 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise evenly over one side. The mayonnaise will keep the bread moist and add a wonderful richness.
Step 3
Place a slice of cheddar cheese on top of the mayonnaise-covered bread. Then, carefully place the bread with the hole on top, creating a two-layered base for your toast.
Step 4
Now, let’s add some delicious layers! Arrange the 2 strips of bacon in a criss-cross (X) pattern over the cheese. Crispy bacon adds an incredible savory flavor. Sprinkle 20g of mozzarella cheese evenly over the bacon.
Step 5
Gently crack one egg directly into the hole you made in the top slice of bread. Be careful not to break the yolk! Sprinkle a pinch of salt, a pinch of black pepper, and a pinch of parsley flakes over the egg for seasoning and aroma.
Step 6
If you wish to add more toppings, you can place them (like sautéed onions or mushrooms) on the bread *before* adding the egg. The original text mentions ‘adding unfinished open toast,’ which might imply cooking other items alongside. If you’re just making this one toast, you can simply proceed to the next step.
Step 7
Place the assembled open-faced toast into your Happycall Ideo Air Fryer. Set the temperature to 180°C (356°F) and the timer for 8 to 9 minutes. You can even start cooking without preheating. The bread will turn golden brown, the cheese will melt beautifully, and the egg will cook to a perfect consistency.
Step 8
Your delicious and satisfying open-faced toast is ready! Enjoy it immediately while it’s warm. It pairs perfectly with coffee or milk for a delightful brunch.
