Breakfast! 2018

While contemplating how best to use some leftover roasted garlic and green onion mashed potatoes, I decided to climb aboard the leftover potatoes breakfast train. Here is my ticket, a small super bowl, if you will, of the aforementioned mashed potatoes, with 2 eggs, a strip of bacon, some pork scrapple, sharp cheddar cheese and chopped green onion, all baked in the oven and treated tableside with liberal and frequent, applications of fresh salsa.

I was lazy this morning and threw roasted potatoes and chopped corned beef into CSO steam bake 325 for 30 min while lounging in bed a little longer.  It came out very nicely.  Topped with fried egg.

Tomato, portabella mushroom and Gruyere cheese on 1/2 of a grilled ciabatta bun.

Do you all make this stuff fresh in the morning?  How early do you wake up?  I couldn't imagine making a small percentage of this before work without waking in the wee hours of the morning!!

 

Indeed. For me it is a weekend phenomenon...often involving leftovers.

I took some of the leftover aloo gobi (Indian spiced potatoes and cauliflower) and fried it up in some ghee before topping it with a crispy-edged, ghee-fried egg.

@HungryChris, you must be an early rise like me.   Since I'm usually up between 3 and 4 AM, I have lots of time to cook.

I would be all over your potato creation.

all  Moe wanted for breakfast on Friday was buttered toast.

Over here onion soubise was brought to the forefront of my mind. It has been on my radar screen for decades but I have never attempted it. Today was as good a day as any. I vaguely followed the Serious Eats version which uses cream rather than a  Bechamel and no rice. Two 8 minute - 90°C eggs were ravaged and slipped into the creamy sauce.  I think this could make eggs Benedict look like health food. 

It requires a lot of patience to cook down the onions without colouring them and it occurred to me as I stood there that these ought to lend themselves to a sous vide treatment.  No doubt I shall discover someone else has already thought about this.  

 

I think I would also like to attempt version using rice.

The great thing about barbeque is that when you get hungry 3 hours later....you can lick your fingers

Avoid cutting yourself while slicing vegetables by getting someone else to hold them while you chop away.

Can you describe your recipe a bit more - how do you stuff a fresh off the tree lime into the toast? My own lime tree is loaded!

Nothing is better than frying in lard.

Nothing.  Do not quote me on this.

Today's breakfast.

Grilled pork chops. Presalted on Saturday and planned for last night's dinner. Never happened so I grilled them this morning.
Served with potatoes that were cooked in the CSO on bake steam setting with red onion and paprika.

Also made my take on Hungarian fried bread.

There was a restaurant in Vancouver, The Ivy that closed a number of years ago. They served as an appetizer fried bread with a garlic sauce. Loved it.

I used some of my regular dough, and fried in hot oil, topped with garlic creme fraiche.
