Pork Fried Rice

 Not sure what meal it will actually be. Let’s just call it nutrition break number one. Oh wait, let’s not.  It really was the one that broke my fast.😂

 

 

Green beans with sesame soy dressing, chicken with leeks from dinner last evening, marinated mushrooms and some beni shoga (pickled ginger).

This morning

 

 

Grilled Pastrami and Pepper Jack Cheese on Rye with Horseradish Mustard 

 

[shain]

"Garden vegetables" shakshuka. Roasted eggplant, zucchini, peppers, mushrooms. Peas, green bean, tomato sauce, fresh mozzarella, basil, soft eggs. Warm crispy bread.

 Another attempt at a rolled omelet this time made with duck eggs. I am told by member @Hiroyuki (in the Tamago thread) that this is correctly called “ahiru no tamago”. 

 

I know it is a poor workman who blames his tools  but I do think that the rectangular omelet pan is not an appropriate vessel on an induction range.  I cannot seem to get it evenly heated and my next attempt at a rolled omelet will be done in a nonstick traditional skillet.

 

 I seem to have the rolling technique pretty much down pat although I do need to work more quickly.

 

 This omelet was quite disappointing being over cooked and somewhat dry.

Polenta with pork belly and egg.  It will keep me full for a long time.

Pizza for breakfast today!

 

 

Pepperoni and Mushroom on an English Muffin

Avocado Egg Sandwich from The Moosewood Restaurant Table cookbook.

There's a cucumber-yogurt-dill-scallion mixture on the bottom, avocado slices and egg.   The recipe calls for hard boiled egg slices but says that fried eggs will be less messy.  I went for some jammy yolks to stick everything together but with these ingredients, applied in this order, I'm afraid a certain mess factor is unavoidable 🙃!

Simple cheese French omelet for breakfast.  

[liuzhou]

Soft boiled eggs with raw asparagus "soldiers".

 

 

[Anna N]

 

 Shirred Shiitake Eggs from Eric Gower’s The Breakaway Cook.   Even a bit overcooked these elicited some accidental sounds of satisfaction from me.

I guess by definition it’s not a French omelette if it has something inside.  I was shooting for a non browned rolled omelette 

[Anna N]

 

 New potatoes cooked in dashi. 

 

[Anna N]

 

Miso soup with wakame and potatoes and a simple poached egg on rice seasoned with matcha salt. (The wakame was a left over so there’s a little more than is appropriate in this bowl of soup.)

I am ever so impressed that you dish out one Japanese inspired breakfast after the other. Truly admiring (and being a tiny bit envious on) your efforts!

Pork and shiitake stuffed steamed bun. Chilli sauce dip. Two buns were consumed.

[robirdstx]

 

Scrambled Egg and Rye Toast - after the photo was taken, I topped the toast with the egg and folded

[Anna N]

 

Black maitake mushroom miso soup. 

 

 

 Then I spent many hours attempting to roll sushi.    It looks so easy when someone else does it.   I ate all my mistakes and these are only just two of them.

[heidih]

Just had a nice conversation with gardener guy we have deep ties with. From jalisco. Asked what most special dish and he said birria in a pit. One day I'll get down there

[scubadoo97]

I'd be so full eating my sushi mistakes

 I was.  Probably don’t need to see another piece of sushi for years.

[liuzhou]

Boiled duck egg with home made flatbread.

 

 

[Anna N]

 

Bacon, duck egg and mini pita fried in bacon fat. 

 

[Okanagancook]

Speaking of flat breads.  I made these last night.  Easy recipe.  The only trick is to not over cook the bread before you puff it.  Just a minute or two on each side.  They were very tender.  I think I would add salt to the dough recipe next time.  DH loved them with his chili.
