Toast eight round slices of bread and lay them on a dish, cut some fresh tomatoes across in two, fry in butter and put a half on each slice of toast, on top arrange a round slice of sweet peppers. Lay two poached eggs on every one of the prepared toasts, and pour cream sauce mingled with tomato sauce around.
