The Method
5 steps-
1
Bring a small saucepan of water to a bare simmer. Add the vinegar.
-
2
While the water heats, smash the peas in a bowl with a fork — chunky, not paste. Stir in the mint, lemon juice and zest, parmesan, olive oil, salt, and pepper.
-
3
Toast the sourdough deeply golden.
-
4
Crack the egg into a small cup. Slide it gently into the simmering water. Cook 3 minutes for a runny yolk, 4 for set. Lift out with a slotted spoon onto kitchen paper.

5
Pile the smashed peas onto the toast. Sit the egg on top, season generously, finish with a thread of olive oil.
