How to make our Toasted Brioche, Poached Eggs & Green Goddess Sauce

1 Place avocado, mayonnaise, lemon juice, tarragon, chives and eschalot into the bowl of a small food processor. Pulse until smooth and well combined. If mixture is too thick, add 1 tbsp of warm water at a time and process until desired consistency. Season with salt and white pepper. Transfer to a bowl.

2 Thinly slice asparagus lengthways with a small sharp knife or vegetable peeler. Place into a bowl and cover with boiling water. Stand for 1-2 minutes or until just tender. Drain. Toast brioche and place onto serving plates. Top with spinach leaves.

3 Bring a deep frying pan of water to the boil. Reduce heat to low and add vinegar to pan. Break an egg into a cup and slide into water. Repeat with another egg. Cook for 3 minutes or until white of egg is just cooked. Remove egg with a slotted spoon and transfer to a plate lined with paper towel. Repeat with remaining eggs. Place egg onto spinach and top with asparagus, salt and cracked black pepper. Serve with green goddess sauce on the side.
