Green vege tarts with soft egg

  • To prepare the broad beans, shell the beans from the pods and blanch in a pot of boiling water for 2 minutes, drain and refresh immediately. Gently peel the outer skin to reveal the beautiful bright green bean
  • Heat a pan over medium heat and add the olive oil, leeks and ginger, allow to gently soften. Increase heat and quickly add the prepared asparagus and sugar snap peas
  • When heated through add the spinach and allow to wilt slightly. Stir through coriander leaves and season with sesame oil. Remove pan to a warm place whilst you prepare the soft egg
  • Bring about 5cm of water with vinegar to the boil in a shallow pan, then reduce the heat to a low simmer
  • Crack each egg onto a saucer and then gently slide it onto the water, allow to cook for 3 minutes until the white has set and the yolk is just set and soft inside. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on a paper towel
  • Fill prepared tart cases with vegetables and serve immediately topped with soft egg. Sprinkle with cracked pepper
