Toast the bread until golden and crisp but still soft inside.

Poach the egg: Bring water to a gentle simmer, add a splash of vinegar, swirl, and cook egg for 3–4 minutes until whites are set and yolk is runny.

Assemble: Layer smoked salmon over the toast, then add avocado slices.

Top it off with the poached egg, drizzle pesto over everything, and finish with salt and cracked black pepper.

Optional but fire: hit it with a little lemon juice or chili flakes for extra pop.
