Directions
- Wash and dry all fresh produce.
- Peel and mince the shallot and garlic; place them in a medium bowl.

- Remove cilantro leaves from the stems, mince the leaves, and add them to the bowl, reserving a small amount for garnish.
- Juice the lime and stir it into the tomato mixture with a pinch of salt; set aside.
- Warm a skillet over medium-low heat and melt a little butter, coating the bottom.
- Beat the eggs in a separate bowl.
- Pour the eggs into the skillet and scramble, gently stirring and folding until just set and no longer runny.
- Toast the bread slices until golden.

- Leftover salsa can be stored in the fridge for a day; if cilantro isn’t available, skip it and add a pinch more salt.
