Is there ever an end to how many ways you can cook breakfast with a small number of ingredients? It never ceases to amaze me the number of different combinations that arise when you hunt around for a bit of inspiration. I was on a bit of a mushroom tangent recently and decided to bake…

One pan breakfast genius (bacon and egg cakes)
I hope everyone had a wonderful Easter break. While we’re still just skimming past the eggy time of year here’s another recipe with eggs. This delightful, no-fuss stroke of genius I picked up from my friend Luke’s lovely wife who lives in Korea. When I saw a picture he posted of it on facebook, I…
Happy Easter and here are some eggs
I’m about to pack my swag and trundle off for the week. My taller half and I are gathering everything we’ll need for a week, piling into Bertha the silver superbus, and heading north for the last rays of summer before daylight savings ends. Keep you fingers and toes crossed the weather man is kind…
Healthy one pot breakfast
I love breakfast. There’s something really indulgent about leisurely weekend breakfasts and how they are the antithesis of that time of day during the week. Taking time to drink cups of well steeped tea whilst preparing and cooking fresh ingredients is one of my favourite parts of the week. Having said that convenience can also…
Meals in the madness
The last month has been pretty busy so I thought I’d cheat and pop up some of the on-the-go stuff that I’ve made during this time. My taller half dreamed of having chicken sausages for breakfast. He was actually sleep talking about it and I had a strange sleep-talky conversation with him and decided to…
Catching up
So I’ve been scanning through some photos I took of our food and produce over the last few months while I was studying and thought some of them are just too awesome to not share. Such as our first crop of peas, now that was a satisfying time taking a break from study and shelling…
Simple breakfast with added decandence
As a result of our gourmet feast we have a few pretty speccy ingredients in the fridge which I’ll be using to ramp up a few staples over time. For this simple breakfast I decided to use the salmon roe but the truffle paste is staring at me and begging to be combined with eggs…
Breakfast inspired by Melbourne
We had a bit of a foodie weekend in Melbourne a couple of months back and I was inspired. Particularly by the breakfasts we ate at Pint of Milk and the Dutchess of Spotswood. The Dutchess of Spotswood was particularly outstanding serving up all sorts of rich unusual english fare such as blood sausage and…
Creamy scrambled eggs with mushrooms sauteed in verjuice, quince paste and tomatoes
So one of the tricks to creamy scrambled eggs is not too much scrambling. Don’t overwork them in the frying pan, just gently fold them over a few times. For this dish I added a little cream so they were extra creamy. For the mushrooms I sautéd them in a saucepan with olive oil until…
More breakfast potato
I seem to be on weekend morning kitchen duty at the moment. Saturday saw us have home made hash browns, boiled eggs and grilled tomato. For home made hash browns simply grate potato, form into evenly sized piles and drop into very hot sunflower oil, cooking until golden brown. Enjoy!
