Grey rows are pantry staples: salt, oil, spices. They are not counted in the serving price.

Method

  1. Drop eggs3 into boiling water and cook for 6.5 minutes, then immediately transfer to cold water for 2 minutes and peel: the white should be firm, the yolk still runny.

  2. Cut bread into 1.5 cm cubes and toast in a dry skillet over medium heat for 3 minutes until crisp. Transfer to a plate.

  3. Slice mushrooms into 5 mm thick rounds and finely chop the garlic6.

  4. Heat the skillet over high heat, add mushrooms without oil, and sauté for 4–5 minutes until water evaporates and they brown. Add oil and garlic6, cook 1 more minute, then season with salt.

  5. Arrange spinach on a plate, top with hot mushrooms: the spinach will wilt slightly.

  6. Drizzle with balsamic vinegar, add croutons and halved eggs3, sprinkle with parmesan5 shavings and cracked black pepper.

Tips

Why it works
Cook the mushrooms in a dry pan first, until the water is gone. With oil from the start they stew instead of browning.
Substitutions
Use 20 g of any hard cheese instead of Parmesan. A teaspoon of lemon juice can replace the balsamic vinegar.
Common mistakes
Eggs turn firm in the middle when they boil longer than 7 minutes. Set a timer and cool them in cold water right away.
Storing and reheating
Eat it right away: the spinach wilts and the croutons go soft within 10 minutes. You can boil the eggs the evening before and keep them in the fridge for up to 2 days.
Serve with
Serve as a light dinner or a weekend brunch.
