What it needs
Nothing confirmed on your shelf yet — this list is the whole ask.
- bread
- eggs
- arugula
- olive oil
Good if you have them, fine if you do not: parmesan.
Method
- Toast, oiled, and the arugula dressed separately with oil, lemon and salt in a bowl before it goes anywhere.
- Undressed leaves on toast are decoration. Dressed leaves are the reason the plate works.
- Egg fried in olive oil with the white crisped at the edges, laid on the toast, arugula piled on top of the egg.
- Parmesan and black pepper over. The heat of the egg wilts the leaves slightly, which is exactly the point.

Why each of these is on the list
What the ingredients are actually doing
- bread
- Structure, thickener, and the reason a lot of these dishes stretch.
- eggs
- The cheapest way to turn a side dish into dinner.
- arugula
- Pepper and bitterness in a leaf, which makes it seasoning as much as salad.
- olive oil
- Two ingredients sharing a name.

Anchovy egg toast
Hot toast, a melted anchovy, a jammy egg, lemon. Breakfast that tastes like a bar in Rome. Don't make it a Caesar on bread.

Spanish migas
Stale bread fried in oil with garlic and paprika until it is almost a hash. Egg on top. Bacon if you have it. Don't make stuffing and call it migas.

Anchovy tomato toast
Anchovy melts if the toast is hot.

Arugula apple salad
Peppery leaves against crisp fruit, dressed at the last second. Arugula collapses faster than any other salad green.
