Method

  1. 1

    Warm 0.5 tablespoon of avocado oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat for 1 minute.

  2. 2

    Add the black beans, water, ground cumin, garlic powder, half the salt, and the black pepper to the saucepan. Simmer for 5 minutes, lightly mashing some of the beans with a fork until saucy and thoroughly warmed through, then cover and keep warm off the heat.

  3. 3

    Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of avocado oil in a large skillet over medium heat for 2 minutes. Crack the eggs directly into the hot oil, season with the remaining salt, and cook for 3 to 4 minutes until the whites are fully set and crisped around the edges while the yolks remain soft and runny.

  4. 4

    Gently warm the salsa in a small saucepan over low heat for 2 minutes until just heated through.

  5. 5

    Divide the warm seasoned black beans evenly between two shallow serving plates. Place two fried eggs over each bean portion, spoon the warm salsa across the eggs, scatter with the crumbled goat feta cheese, and finish with a drizzle of hot sauce before serving immediately.

Tip

The seasoned black beans can be cooked ahead and stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. If you prefer your eggs over-easy, flip them carefully 30 seconds before removing from the pan.
