Method

Preheat the oven to 200°C.

Scatter torn bread pieces on a baking tray and drizzle with olive oil.

Bake bread and garlic-topped tomatoes on separate trays for 8-10 minutes until crisp.

Fry bacon in a hot griddle pan until charred and chop into small pieces.

Shake the oil, vinegar, mustard, and 30ml water in a jar until emulsified.

Poach eggs in a vortex of simmering water with vinegar for 4 minutes.

Toss spinach, basil, tomatoes, croutons, and most of the bacon with the dressing.

Top with a poached egg and the remaining bacon before serving.
