Fill a pan halfway with water and bring it to a boil with the lid on.

Warm the eggs in a glass of warm water if they are cold from the fridge.

Cut the avocado in half, twist to separate, and scoop out the flesh with a spoon.

Chop the avocado roughly and place it in a bowl.

Smash the avocado with a fork against the side of the bowl until chunky, not pureed.

Add 1 tablespoon of chopped coriander, 1 tablespoon of olive oil, and 1 tablespoon of lime juice to the smashed avocado.

Season the avocado mixture to taste and mix well.

Slice ciabatta bread in half and grill it for about 90 seconds to 2 minutes, watching closely to avoid burning.

Once the water is boiling, remove the lid and let it cool slightly until there are only a few bubbles rising to the top.

Add a dash of vinegar or a pinch of salt to the water to help the eggs stick together.

Crack the eggs into smaller containers and gently drop them into the simmering water.

Poach the eggs for 2 to 3 minutes until the whites are set and the yolks are still bouncy.

Remove the eggs with a slotted spoon and drain on kitchen paper.

Spread the smashed avocado on the toasted ciabatta and place the poached eggs on top.

Season with fresh black pepper and serve immediately.
