- 1 avocado, pitted, peeled, sliced thinly or mashed
- 1 large leaf lettuce, washed and patted dry

- 2 eggs
- 2 teaspoons harissa, or to taste

Toast the bread and cook the eggs: Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat. Place the two slices of multigrain bread into the pan and toast them until golden brown and sturdy, flipping once to toast both sides. While the bread is toasting, whisk the 2 eggs in a small bowl with a pinch of salt and black pepper.

Integrate eggs and bread: Once the bread is toasted, pour the whisked eggs directly into the pan, surrounding the two slices of toasted bread. Sprinkle black pepper over the cooking eggs. Spread harissa on the top surface of each toasted bread slice that is now embedded in the egg. Allow the eggs to cook gently until just set.

Wrap the bread with egg: Once the egg is mostly set, use a spatula or fork to fold the outer edges of the egg over the bread slices, encasing the sides of the bread. Flip the entire egg-and-bread assembly to cook the other side of the egg and further toast the bread. Gently press down with a fork to ensure good contact with the pan.

Assemble the sandwich in the pan: With the egg-wrapped bread still in the pan, lay out the ingredients on one of the bread slices (which has harissa spread on its inner side). Layer the lettuce first, then the sliced avocado, followed by the tomato slices, and finally the smoked salmon. Close the sandwich by folding the other egg-wrapped bread slice (also with harissa spread on its inner side) over the assembled ingredients. Gently press down on the finished sandwich with a fork while it's still in the pan.

Finish and serve: Carefully remove the assembled sandwich from the pan using tongs. Place it on a cutting board. Cut the sandwich in half diagonally with a knife. Serve immediately.
