Time needed

  • Preparation: 10 minutes
  • Cook: 5 minutes
  • Total: 15 minutes

Ingredients required

  • 1 medium everything bagel
  • 2 large eggs
  • Salt, to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons of unsalted butter
  • 1 tablespoon of coarsely chopped fresh dill
  • 2 ounces of smoked salmon
  • 5 spears of grilled, roasted, or blanched asparagus
  • 1/4 cup pickled red onion, produced at home or purchased, or to taste
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons of cream cheese

Steps of making a fully loaded smoked salmon bagel sandwich

  • Toast the bagel as desired after slicing it in half crosswise.
  • During that time, crack the eggs into a small basin, season with salt and pepper, and whisk well.
  • A little nonstick skillet is warmed up. Put the butter.
  • The eggs should be added to the skillet after the butter has melted. Using a silicone spatula, mix continually until the eggs are fully cooked but still soft. Add the dill on top, then put aside.
  • Place the soft scrambled eggs gently on the bagel's bottom half's sliced side. Add the asparagus, pickled red onions, and smoked salmon on top.
  • On the sliced side of the remaining bagel half, spread the cream cheese. Serve the sandwich with the cream cheese side facing up and the pickled red onions on the bottom.

Advice on how to make the perfect bagel sandwich

  • Bagels should always be toasted since untoasted ones are too dense and doughy.
  • 30 minutes before preparing the recipe, take the cream cheese out of the refrigerator. The cream cheese will soften, resulting in better component mixing.
  • When possible, always use fresh ingredients. In terms of flavor, it is the deciding factor.
