How to make an impressive and tasty breakfast!

March 13, 2009

I found this awesome little breakfast recipe in an equally awesome Australian magazine called Delicious.

I tried it the other day and the above picture is my attempt at it!

What you need:

eggs (as many as there are people)

large tomatoes (as many as there are people)

bacon

mozzarella

fresh basil

olive oil

bread

toothpick

And here’s how simple it is:

Cut the top of your tomato off and scoop out all the insides - then place upside down to drain for 15mins

Finely chop a hand full of basil and mix with a generous portion of olive oil

With your hands, rub the insides of the tomato’s with the basil and olive oil concoction

Wrap a piece (or two depending on size) of bacon around the outside of the tomato and secure with a toothpick

Place on a baking tray and pop into a pre heated oven (200 degrees)

Once the bacon looks cooked and before being crispy - remove from oven (about 15mins).

Crack an egg into the hollow of the tomato and return to the oven until you can see that the egg is almost cooked (5-10mins).

Grate some Mozarella over the top of the tomato’s and return to oven for just long enough to melt.

Remove and serve with toast.

It’s the weeknd so give it a go and let me know what you think.
