Cheesy Beans on Toast with a Fried Egg

Ingredients

• 2 slices thick bread
• 1/2 x 400g tin baked beans
• 30g cheddar cheese, grated
• 1 egg
• 1 tsp butter or oil, for frying
• Black pepper, to taste

Method

1. Put the bread on to toast.
2. Meanwhile, tip the beans into a small saucepan and heat gently over medium heat, stirring occasionally, for 3-4 minutes until piping hot.
3. Heat the butter or oil in a small frying pan over medium heat. Crack in the egg and fry for 2-3 minutes until the white is set but the yolk is still soft (or longer, if you prefer it firm).
4. Stir most of the cheese into the hot beans until melted.
5. Spoon the cheesy beans over the toast, top with the fried egg, and scatter over the remaining cheese and a good grind of black pepper.
