Cooking has become one of my favorite single-tasking activities. Tonight I made risotto with peas, chicken katsu, and salad of baby spinach, red onion & pepper and avocado. And washed it down with a beer.
Just in case there was any question, my devotion to bacon is utter and complete. Bacon is a delicious, finicky but patient mistress, and she likes dressing up with everything.
Mm, breakfast.
- 1 shallot
- 1 clove garlic
- 2 eggs
- 4 slices bacon
- 4 slices potato-rosemary bread
- 1 tbsp safflower or canola oil
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- sea salt
- pepper
- pinch fresh dill
Place bacon in cold cast-iron pan, put on medium-low heat. Coat second pan with olive oil and start the bread on medium-low heat. Slice shallot & garlic and sautee for 2-3 minutes in safflower oil over medium-high heat. Whisk eggs with salt, pepper and a dash of water. Turn bacon & bread, pour eggs over shallots & garlic, and cook for 1-2 minutes until golden (not brown).
Turn off all heat, blot bacon and plate. Sprinkle dill over eggs and serve!
What are the 5 words that best describe your life right now?
Question submitted by mojito.
Patience, refinement, cooking, Pista, Vox.
The first two because life is a process. Cooking because it's currently my favorite thing to do at home. Pista and Vox should be obvious. :)
