If you are feeling quite hungry after just waking up and want to have a
|
|
breakfast to fill your HP and stamina bars for the day, I've got just the
|
|
perfect recipe for you.
|
|
|
|
To be honest, this is more of a build-your-own dish. What I am providing here, I
|
|
would say, is more of a starting point and you're more than welcome to add (or
|
|
remove) anything you'd like. I also have to say that this is not exclusively a
|
|
breakfast dish, I've had it for breakfast, for lunch, for supper, for dinner,
|
|
etc. Although, I guess when you're a student just any food at any time of the
|
|
day will do.
|
|
|
|
## Ingredients
|
|
|
|
Since I more often than not cook this only for myself, the ingredient list below
|
|
is calculated for one person. Once more, this is not a strict ingredient list,
|
|
so you can really add anything you want. I would say that the only ingredients
|
|
that are a most are the eggs and the potatoes. The rest of the ingredients I
|
|
will mark with * for the ones that I usually use, and ** for ingredients that I
|
|
have used, but seldom use.
|
|
|
|
* 2 eggs
|
|
* 2 small/medium-sized potatoes
|
|
* Salt
|
|
* Black pepper
|
|
* 4-6 bacon strips*
|
|
* ½ an onion*
|
|
* Cheese (I usually use Gouda)*
|
|
* Paprika*
|
|
* A couple of Champignon 'shrooms**
|
|
* Some slices of bell pepper**
|
|
|
|
## Directions
|
|
|
|
1. Cut the bacon into pieces and fry it on a pan.
|
|
2. Cut the potatoes into small cubes.
|
|
3. After frying the bacon, set aside and use the bacon grease to fry the
|
|
potatoes over medium/medium-low heat for about 20 minutes.
|
|
4. Add some salt and paprika to the potatoes, mix well and cook for another ten
|
|
minutes.
|
|
5. Cut the onions and add them to the frying pan. Cook for about five minutes.
|
|
6. If you decide to add some vegetables, like mushrooms or peppers, add them
|
|
now.
|
|
7. Now, there are two ways you can cook the eggs.*
|
|
* Beat the eggs in a bowl and the pour them onto the pan.
|
|
* Or just crack the eggs directly on the mix in the pan and mix everything
|
|
thoroughly.
|
|
8. Cut the cheese into small slices and add it.
|
|
9. Cook for a couple of minutes more, until eggs are cooked enough. Don't let
|
|
the eggs dry (unless that's the way you like your eggs ¯\\_(ツ)\_/¯).
|
|
10. For the final touch, chop the parsley (or whatever other spices/herbs you
|
|
decided to use) and add it on top.
|
|
11. Serve hot and add some freshly ground pepper.
|
|
|
|
\*Personally, I prefer to beat the eggs first in a bowl before adding them to the
|
|
frying pan.
