Nothing is better than frying in lard.

Nothing.  Do not quote me on this.

Ah yes. A toasted western is one of my favourites. Thanks for the kind wishes. Blame Blether for the quiche. He renewed my interest in quiches in all their manifestations.

I know ... me, too.  That's why I made a ham, broccoli and swiss quiche last weekend for guests.   Now I'm thinking a crustless western?

Lots of Indian cabbage and potatoes left over from last night. I gave them a quick chop and threw them into a screaming hot cast iron pan with some ghee. Topped with a fried egg they made a fine breakfast.

Nice hit of umami to start the day. Portobello caps topped with sliced tomatoes and mozzarella.

Breakfast this morning required more than the usual amount of imagination. It is very early as I will be on the road by 8:30 heading for the Eggfest down Niagara way. (http://forums.egullet.org/topic/135020-cooking-on-a-big-green-egg/?p=1982051)

So a quick review of the fridge yielded:

A zucchini which I sliced and quickly broiled, some Parmesan cheese to top it with, a chub of herbed braunschweiger and some home pickled beets. Perfectly satisfactory.

There will be lots of food at the fest but it will not start appearing until after 11 AM. By 2 PM we will all be too stuffed to move!

Rather substantial breakfast. Knew I would miss lunch today due to an appointment. Acorn squash with baked egg (egg overcooked) accompanied by ciabatta bread with herbed braunschweiger.

Inspired by a recent breakfast at Van Kahvaltı Evi in the Cihangir district of İstanbul, I had to get myself a menemen pan...and make menemen!

At its most basic level, it's onion, green peppers, and lots of tomatoes sauteed/softened in olive oil, with beaten egg thrown it at the end and then scrambled until barely set. Utterly delicious. This was a plain one, but it's often made with cheese and/or meats such as sucuk (sliced spicy sausages) thrown in as well. 

 

PS: Turkey is the place to get copper cookware, this pan wasn't more than about $15.

Hassouni,

This looks delicious and right up my alley for breakfast. I googled for a recipe and they seem to be all over the place in terms of both ingredients and methods. I take it though that the dish is traditional but hardly crucial to the success of the recipe?
