Prepare the Avocado
Cut the ripe avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a bowl. Add 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, 1 teaspoon of salt, and black pepper to taste. Mash the avocado with a fork until creamy but still slightly chunky.
Eggs Preparation

Poach the Eggs
In a saucepan, bring water to a gentle simmer and add 1 tablespoon of vinegar. Crack each egg into a small bowl. Create a gentle whirlpool in the water and carefully slide each egg into the center. Poach for about 3-4 minutes, until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny. Remove with a slotted spoon and season with salt.
