Sometimes, Lazy Is The Way To Go
Posted in Cooking on October 25th, 2005So last night I was feeling like a lazy bum, but also wanted something warm and comforting for dinner, so I made myself an old standby. Egg In The Hole aka Toad In The Hole and a bazillion other names. Here’s how it goes:
Butter
1 Egg
1 Slice Bread
Melt some butter in a skillet over medium heat. While the butter is melting, use a shot glass to cut a hole in the middle of the bread. When the butter has almost stopped bubbling, place the bread into the pan and then crack the egg into the hole. Allow to cook until the partly set 1-2 minutes, the flip carefully and allow to cook for 1 more minute. This allows for a runny yolk. If you like firmer yolks, increase the times appropriately. Gently remove from the skillet and eat immediately.
