Step-by-step preparation of a sandwich with bacon, cucumber and poached egg, recipe with photo:
1. Cut the bread into thin slices, about 0.8-1 cm each. To make the sandwiches beautifully shaped from the bread slices, you can squeeze out mugs or figurines using a glass or baking dish. Also, sandwiches will be tastier if the bread slices are pre-dried in the oven, toast or in a dry frying pan. Some housewives fry them in vegetable oil. But then you need to put the fried pieces of bread on a paper napkin to remove excess oil, which quickly absorbs unnecessary fat.
2. Wash and dry the cucumbers with a paper towel. Cut them into thin rings, 3 mm thick, and place them on top of a slice of bread.
3. Cut the bacon into thin slices and place on top of the cucumbers on the sandwich.
4. Wash the greens, dry with a paper towel and put on top of the bacon.
5. Break the egg, place in a glass of drinking water and add a pinch of salt. Send it to the microwave and cook for 1 minute at 850 kW. If you have a different power of the device, then watch the readiness of the protein. It has to coagulate. As soon as this happens, remove the eggs from the microwave. The yolk in the middle should remain soft and runny.
6. Drain the water from the glass, carefully remove the egg and place it on the bacon. Serve the finished sandwich with bacon, cucumber and poached egg immediately after cooking.
