Fresh sandwich ingredients neatly displayed: 2 slices of bread, a knob of butter, boiled eggs, sliced tomato, and finely chopped spring onions—everything needed for the Golden Egg and Mayo Breakfast Sandwich.

Boil the Eggs to Your Liking

Start by placing your eggs in a pot of water and bringing it to a gentle boil. Whether you love a soft yolk or prefer them hard-boiled, it’s totally up to you:

  • Soft: 6 minutes
  • Medium: 8 minutes
  • Hard: 10 to 12 minutes

Once they’re done, transfer the eggs into a bowl of cold water. This not only stops the cooking process but also makes peeling so much easier—no more sticky shells! While they chill, it’s the perfect time to prep the rest of your ingredients.

Butter and Build the Base

While the eggs are cooling, grab your bread slices and spread them generously with butter—no need to toast! The buttery layer adds richness and helps balance out the soft eggs and creamy mayo. Once your eggs are peeled and ready, slice them gently and set them aside. Now you’ve got all your main components ready for layering—quick, easy, and totally satisfying

Layer the Goodness

Once your eggs are sliced and ready, it’s time to start building. Take one of your buttered bread slices and spread on a generous layer of creamy mayonnaise—don’t be shy with it! This adds a smooth, tangy base that pairs beautifully with the eggs.

Next, gently place your sliced eggs on top, then follow with thin slices of juicy tomato. Finally, sprinkle some freshly chopped spring onions for that pop of crunch and a subtle zing. Every layer brings something special, and together, they make a morning bite you’ll truly look forward to.

Finish and Enjoy Every Bite

Carefully place the second slice of buttered bread over your stacked layers. Press it down gently to hold everything together—just enough to feel the warmth and softness merge. Now, slice your sandwich in half for that satisfying reveal of golden egg, creamy mayo, and fresh veggies.

Serve it up on your favorite plate with a warm cup of tea, coffee, or even a smoothie. That’s how you start your morning right—with something simple, satisfying, and made with love.
