Ingredients

Method

1.Add white vinegar to a deep frying pan of simmering water. Break eggs, one at a time, into a cup; slide each egg into the water. When all eggs are in pan, allow water to return to a boil. Cover pan, turn off heat; stand for 4 minutes or until a light film of egg white sets over yolks. Remove eggs, one at a time, using a slotted spoon; place spoon on absorbent-paper-lined saucer briefly to blot up any poaching liquid.
2.Meanwhile, add sprouts to a medium saucepan of boiling water; boil for 5 seconds. Drain; place sprouts in a large bowl of iced water, stand until cold. Drain well.
3.Stir pine nuts in a small frying pan over medium heat until toasted lightly.
4.Place sprouts, pine nuts and basil in a medium bowl, season to taste; toss gently to combine.
5.Divide salad between serving bowls, top with poached eggs and parmesan. Drizzle with balsamic vinegar and oil. Season to taste.
