Place egg in salted boiling water for 6.5 mins for soft boiled (like in picture). Plunge into ice cold water and leave for a couple mins to cool. De-shell egg and store in fridge until ready to use.
Edamame
Using the same boiling water drop edamame pods in for 1 minute and plunge into ice water bath. Remove beans from the pod and store in fridge until ready to use.
Black Pudding
On medium heat add 1 tbsp oil to frying pan and fry black pudding until crispy – approx 5 minutes
Assembly
The beauty of this is you can make everything in advance (except the pudding) so it’s a great dish to have when visitors come over. You can serve a giant bowl for everyone to help themselves or be fancy and do individual bowls.
Smear the hummus around the side of the bowl and place the red cabbage on base of bowl.
Add the avocado, black pudding, edamame and jalapenos next
Mix the herbs together and place on top.
Drizzle the avocado with 1 tbsp oil and sprinkle the dish with chili flakes, sesame seeds and Maldon salt

Tips/Tricks
prepare as much as possible in advance. I always have the pickled onions in the fridge – they last about 2 months. That is if you don’t eat them sooner!
if you prefer your eggs a little more cooked then leave em in the boiling water for an additional minute.
plenty of salt in the water and straight into ice cold water will help in the peeling process
don't be afraid to use shop bought hummus or pickled onions to save time BUT when you have a little extra TRUST me and make up some of these onions yourself!
