Hot or Cold Bean Soup with Poached Egg

Preparation time: 15 min Cooking time: 30min Serves: 4 people

Ingredients:

500gr of green beans 500gr of flat beans 1 medium potato 1 bunch of chives

1 cube of vegetable stock 2 tablespoons of olive oil 4 eggs 20cl of UHT liquid cream (12%)

Soup preparation :

• Cook your beans in a large pot of boiling water and add the vegetable stock cube.

• Drain the beans keeping the equivalent of 2 ladles of broth.

• Mix everything together and add the chopped chives and the liquid cream.

• Blend again until you obtain a creamy and smooth soup.

• Season according to your tastes.

Poached eggs preparation:

• Use a small glass or a terracotta container that can withstand the heat of cooking in a bain-marie.

• Oil the container and break an egg in it.

• Add salt, pepper, chives, and olive oil.

• Put the container (with the egg inside) in a frying pan filled with water.

• Leave your egg to cook over low heat. Once cooked (the yolk must remain runny), remove it from the container by peeling off the sides with a knife.

Place the soup (or gazpacho) in a soup plate and place the poached egg gently in the center. Add a drizzle of olive oil and balsamic cream. Season with salt and pepper and serve!

So yummy !
