Place a couple of pats of butter into a skillet over medium-high heat. Place the bread slices into the butter and toast the soaked bread, rotating the slices to get a consistent toast. Then flip the slices and toast on the flip-side until they are toasted to your liking.

Then remove the slices, two to a plate and top with the 5-Spice Butter. See the recipe Notes for a link to the recipe.

Once the egg yolk is cooked to your liking, place the egg atop the sandwich on a plate. Garnish with herbs and berries and serve. It's great with some iced-tea at lunch. Or maybe a cappuccino at breakfast. Enjoy.

Our recommendation for low-carb bread is any one of the breads available from The Great Low Carb Bread Company. Check our our approved products pages. Each slice has only 1 net carb. Or use the thin-sliced bread for only 0.5 net carb per slice. The 5-spice butter is merely a mixture of whipping cream, butter, sugar-substitute and Chinese 6-spice. Here's the simple recipe.
