Method

Bring a pan of water to a gentle simmer. Reduce the heat so the water is just steaming, then create a whirlpool with a spoon. Break the egg into the water and cook for 2–3 min for a runny yolk, or until done to your liking.
Meanwhile, toast the crumpet and heat the beans. Serve the beans on the crumpet, then top with the egg, sprinkled with black pepper and herbs, if using.
