Bird's Nest Brunch
I've been playing with my food again. When I was a kid, the one thing that was sure to get your 'ears boxed' was playing with your food. Well, it was a threat really, I never got my ears boxed, heads were off limits. Bottoms were another matter.... but enough of that! So I was in the kitchen making hash browns....
when I saw my scone cutter.....
and I thought....
This would be really good with an egg fried in the middle!
So, I cut a whacking great hole in the middle of my hash browns, cracked in an egg, a bit of salt and pepper and popped a lid on the pan. After a couple of minutes the egg had cooked, but the yolk was still soft. Perfect, I want to dip that crispy hash brown into that rich, yellow yolk.
A few freshly chopped chives, a sprig of parsley and a geum* flower later and I had brunch. See, it isn't always bad to play with your food!
*This flower is just for decoration, please DO NOT eat any flower unless you KNOW it is safe to do so.
