Leftover Mashed Potato with Egg

It doesn't photograph well. But you can't go wrong with potatoes and egg. Reading the list of ingredients made me want to post this one and try it myself.

 

Ingredients

Eggs (1 per person) Potatoes (1-2 small ones per person) Cheese (any kind that you like) Sour cream Butter Milk Parsley Vinegar Salt (to taste) Pepper (to taste)

Directions

Mashed Potatoes
Start by peeling and quartering your potatoes, then boil them until they are cooked through. Mash them in a bowl, and mix in butter, milk, sour cream, cheese, salt, and pepper. Lumps are fine in this dish as well. So you don’t have to be too precise, but you could use a ricer if you’d like a smoother mash.

Poached Eggs
Bring salted water to a boil and add a tablespoon or so of vinegar. When your water is boiling, give the pot a good stir (to create a vortex of sorts) and add your egg. Cook until the egg becomes opaque and can be handled with a spoon without breaking.
When the egg is cooked, remove it from the pot and place it on a plate (or paper towel) until you’re ready.


Plating
When everything is ready, spoon your potatoes onto your plate, then place your egg on top, and garnish with chopped parsley.

Cabbage with an Egg

An unusual breakfast, but I'd try it at least once.

2 cups cabbage (julienned) 1 egg 1 clove Garlic Parsley 1 tablespoon Butter 3 tablespoons White Wine

1 tablespoon flour ¼ to ½ cup Milk Olive Oil Salt (to taste) Pepper (to taste)

Start by sautéing julienned cabbage in a bit of olive. Add minced garlic, season with salt and
pepper, and cook until the cabbage is thoroughly wilted.

Next, deglaze the pan with white wine, then allow it to reduce, and remove everything from the pan (just transfer it to a plate or bowl).

Next, make a quick béchamel (or you could just use cream), by meltinga bit of butter in your pan, then mix in you flour, and cook it briefly. Add your milk to the pan, and whisk everything together until it becomes a smooth sauce (you can also add more milk or water as needed).

When the sauce has come together, season with salt and pepper, then add your cooked cabbage back to the pan, and stir it into your sauce.

Finally, fry an egg, then spoon your cabbage onto a plate, place your egg on top, and finish with copped parsley.

Breakfast on a Cookie Sheet

Found at Ricardo's Cuisine.

PREPARATION
With the rack in the middle position, preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
On the prepared baking sheet, combine the sweet potato, onion, bell pepper and bacon. Season with salt and pepper. Bake for 30 minutes, stirring halfway through cooking.
Meanwhile, in a bowl, combine the tomatoes, tomato paste, molasses and harissa paste. Add to the vegetables and toss to coat. Continue to bake for 15 minutes.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven. Gently stir in the beans. With a spoon, shape six wells in the vegetable mixture. Break an egg into each well. Continue to bake for 6 to 7 minutes or until the egg whites are cooked.
Sprinkle with the parsley. Serve with toasted bread, if desired.

Colourful Pepper Breakfast

A colourful breakfast with orange, yellow, red, and green pepper slices. Not great as breakfast for one unless you are using all those peppers for something else the same day. But, it would still be nice with just one pepper, of which ever colour.

Luxurious Egg Dishes for Breakfast - Top Ten List

Proving everyone has their own breakfast style, often based on culture and location. None of these really appealed to me. Most luxurious ingredients make the breakfast awkward for me. I want the simple, wonderful, breakfast I had last week rather than the complicated and expensive breakfast photographed for a magazine.
