Ingredients

  • 3 large eggs
  • 270g pasta
  • 80g mushrooms
  • 80g brussels sprouts
  • 20g lemon juice
  • 5g olive oil
  • 6g garlic
  • fresh parsley, thyme & black pepper
  • 10g butter
  • 5g olive oil
  • lemon wedge

Method

  1. 1

    Prep everything first: wash and trim the mushrooms and sprouts, then measure out the sauce ingredients.

  2. 2

    Cook the wholewheat pasta in salted boiling water for 10-12 minutes until al dente; save a splash of pasta water.

  3. 3

    Lower the eggs into boiling water and cook for 6½ minutes, then cool in cold water and peel.

  4. 4

    Toss the protein in lemon juice, olive oil, garlic and herbs before cooking, and squeeze over more lemon to finish.

  5. 5

    Meanwhile, steam or stir-fry the mushrooms and sprouts for 3-5 minutes until just tender with a little bite.

  6. 6

    Build the bowl: wholewheat pasta first, then the veg and soft-boiled egg, spooning over any remaining sauce. Finish with the lemon wedge.

  7. 7

    Bulking upgrade: add the butter, olive oil for extra energy-dense calories.
