What are you having for breakfast?

[Harry Bloomfield]

Nowt at all today, just coffee....

Avril is away, visiting, so for lunch I'm planning on treating myself to a carvery.

Bread with fried egg and avocado.

 

[Mottie]

Cooking on gas this morning - Gasoline! Poached eggs and asparagus on wholemeal seeded toast. Asparagus was direct from the plot of Mott.

A fried egg roll, cooked on our new hob. Perfectly fried - not snotty, not with a crispy bottom, no bubbles in the white and not one single microdot of fat splashed on the hob. Just put oil in pan, set temperature, crack the egg into the pan and just walk away and leave it to itself.

How do you stop the tops of the yolks from being snotty? I've always had to splash the tops with the fat.

I turn them over, briefly, towards the end of cooking.

Bunch of lightweights - skip breakfast and lunch and then eat between 4-8pm.

I think that's what the Americans call "over easy". I've tried it, but I'm a bit clumsy and have had too many go wrong.

I believe so, I just turn the heat off, at that point - it avoids it over-cooking.

So have I when cooking on gas as you cook them quicker but I saw a video on YT with someone demonstrating frying an egg on a Neff induction hob and all she did was leave it and get on with other stuff until it was done. Didn’t need to splash fat over it or flip it over.

 

[ReganAndCarter]

Taking my van into town to garage, leaving at 7am. No time for breakfast, so no doubt I will be steering into 'Spoons for a full English and making good use of the bottomless tea to revive myself.

 

[Mottie]

A day off of the diet - treated my self to a cooked breakfast this morning and I’m going out for a curry and a few beers tonight with my mates who's wives are all out in Spain with Mrs Mottie.

 

[Mottie]

Hotel fried breakfast. Cut a road straight through me!

 

[Andydevon]

It would appear they are trying too hard or not trying hard enough. Not sure which to be honest. Makes Spoons look good though.

Wrong way around. Breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince, dinner like a pauper.
