How to make Salmon Egg Bagel

Tips from the cook

  • Toast the bagel halves in butter until golden first, so they stay crisp against the egg.
  • Lay the bagel on the eggs while they are still wet, so the two stick together when you flip.
  • Flip only when the eggs are mostly set, so the egg stays in one piece.
  • The chilli flakes are optional, so leave them out for a milder bagel.
  • Best eaten straight away, as the crisp bagel softens quickly.
