Prep Time 10 minutes

2 tomatoes, sliced
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Extra virgin olive oil, for drizzling

Method

Bring a medium-sized saucepan of water to just under boiling point. Add the vinegar and crack 1 egg into a small cup.

Remove using a slotted spoon and repeat with the remaining eggs.
