Instructions

1. Measure and heat water

   Measure 1 L of water into a saucepan. Bring to a gentle boil over medium heat.

   Time: PT10M

2. Add eggs and start low‑temperature cooking

   Reduce heat to low, lower the two room‑temperature eggs into the hot water with a slotted spoon. Immediately turn off the heat, cover the pot, and let the eggs rest for exactly 20 minutes.

   Time: PT20M

3. Prepare the potato purée

   While the eggs are resting, peel and cube 300 g potatoes. Place them in a separate pot of salted boiling water and cook until fork‑tender (about 10 minutes). Drain, return to the pot, add 30 g butter and 100 ml warm milk, then mash until smooth. Season with salt to taste.

   Time: PT15M

   Temperature: 100°C

4. Toast buttered bread

   Spread a thin layer of butter on one slice of bread. In a small skillet over medium heat, toast the bread until golden on both sides. Cut the toast into a small square that will sit under the egg.

   Time: PT5M

5. Peel and dry the egg

   Using the slotted spoon, carefully lift each egg from the water. Let it cool for a few seconds, then gently tap and peel the shell. Pat the peeled egg dry with a paper towel.

   Time: PT3M

6. Plate the dish

   Spread a generous spoonful of potato purée onto each plate, creating a small well in the center. Place the buttered bread cube in the well, then set the peeled egg on top. Garnish with rosemary leaves, shaved black truffle, and Parmesan shavings. Serve immediately while the egg is warm.
