Poached Egg Served on a Sausage Bed (it’s sleepy)

(Click each picture to make it larger…..Click the third picture it’s the best I’ve taken for this blog)

I can’t think of a better name for this dish. My creativity was lost while cooking.

Ingredients:

-3 tbsp. olive oil
-1 tsp. annatto seed         (world spice)
-2 sausages cut into 1 inch thick slices           I used Italian Sausage
-1/2 white onion chopped coarsely
-2 garlic cloves, diced
-1 tsp. coriander seed, ground
-dash of smoked paprika
-dash of fresh oregano

-2 eggs, poached

In a large pan on high heat stir in the olive oil and annatto seed together.  Once the oil is starting to crackle place the sausage in as shown in the picture. Brown brown both sides then add the onions, garlic, and coriander.  Cover and cook for 10 minutes, reduce heat to medium.   Take off heat, serve sausage mixture on plate then place a poached egg on top and garnish with oregano and paprika.  Serve!

Enjoy,

Eric

    I thought I knew a thing or two about the kitchen. But annatto seed is also new to me! Wikipedia here I come. GREG

  2. It’s a basic part of sazon seasoning which consists of Annatto seed and Coriander seed blended together in olive oil. Normally, I will infused annatto and coriander together in olive oil for a few days then make traditional Puerto Rican cooking with it.

    For this recipe I separated the ingredients but it worked out just fine.

    Thanks again for stopping by,

  3. I love your motto, but if you start with bacon, isn’t everything else working its way down!!?
    This is a great-looking recipe,just the thing for a weekend family breakfast,or a quick weeknight dinner!

  4. Looks delicious, as always! I’ve used annatto but only by soaking it in water and then removing the seeds (in many Filipino dishes, it’s used primarily for its coloring).
