Bull's Eye

by Terri Farris

Take a large piece of bread, white or brown, and cut out the middle with a pastry cutter or small cup, about 4cm wide. Melt a knob of butter in a frying pan and lay in the bread.

Carefully crack a small egg in the 'hole' and fry until the bottom is cooked, about 2 minutes. The white of the egg will probably spill over the top of the bread. Don't worry, just turn it over to cook the other side.

Fry the cut-out bit of bread and serve it on the side. Quick, easy and fun to eat.
