Can’t go wrong with an egg recipe. I think I’ve had all the types on here. Maybe not brouille. I must remedy that.
The brouille is my fav. I make “scrambled” eggs that way. Very smooth and creamy. Sometimes I add a dollop of creme fraiche and once in a great long while a few shavings of black truffle. It is one of the best eats on the planet. GREG
My favorite fixings with eggs are: scramble eggs with sofrito, frittata and omeletts. Oh, I forgot rice, fried egg on top and on the side SPAM, yes spam (island food).
I love all of these, I can’t think of a complete sunday breakfast without egg. What do you call it in English when you boil it 2 minutes, break and peel just its top and have it with a small spoon. Not so runny, not hard. We call it ‘kayisi’ (apricot in English) as its density is similar to ripe apricot.
