this week we did things with eggs, now this stuff I can do in my sleep but it was still fun to do . Im officially so over eggs right now , it will be a few weeks I think before I can even think about eating eggs for breakfast, We roughly used about a dozen or so per day, doing this for 4 days , I tasted more eggs this week than I have done over a period of 5 or 6 months.
Eggs benedict . folded omelette, cigar omelette, spanish omelette, potato and spinach frittata, eggs en cocotte, french toast with orange/lemon syrup, and my personal favourite dessert omelette with a berry couli
Quiche Lorraine always a popular favourite
Let me tell you about a few of these, I have always been an eggs benedict fan when going out for a breakfast , still love them but wont be eating them for a while. Omelettes are great for a gentle dinner, Potato and spinach frittata , great for picnics, great hot , wonderful cold ,and frittatas can be flavoured in so many different ways. Eggs en cocotte seriously have to be the worst egg dish I have ever tasted . They have a base of spinach and onion cooked in cream and reduced down a little then an egg popped on top and cream floated around it and cooked in a ramekin for an individual serving.
Cooked in a water bath in the oven so that it is just poached.
the texture of the egg and the cream together just made me gag and I think its a good thing that this dish is no longer popular , people would probably die from a heart attack after eating it.
And the eternal favourite French toast , this was light and fluffy and had orange and lemon maple syrup over the top
mmm the breakfast of sweet champions :o)
