Sunday Breakfast

Simply love a lazy Sunday morning.. sleeping cuddled up under the fluffy blanket, no worries about getting late for work, just relax and enjoy the morning, just like it should be. To top it off a simple yet wholesome breakfast. This one's my wife's favourite. ;)




Grilled tomatoes

Ingredients:

2 fresh and juicy tomatoes,
4-5 Garlic cloves, sliced.
4-5 basil leaves, chopped.
Olive oil, 2 tsp,
Cheese, 1 cube, grated,
Salt and pepper, and any herbs you can think of.

Method:

Cut the top and the bottom part of the tomatoes, and rub some olive oil on them, sprinkle some salt. In a pan heat some olive oil, and stir fry the garlic and basil. Place the tomatoes on the pan, and sprinkle the fried garlic and basil on top of the tomatoes. Keep it on simmer with the lid on for a few mins. Once tomato starts getting soft and cooked from inside, sprinkle the grated cheese on top and let the cheese melt. garnish with some peppers and some herbs of your choice, I used oregano, and thyme.

frittata, ala me

Ingredients:

Eggs, 4
Potatoes, 1 small, cut into tiny cubes
Bell peppers, 1/2 cup, chopped,
Onion, 1 small, chopped,
Cheese 1 cube, grated,
Butter, 15 gms,
garlic, 1 clove, sliced.
Salt and pepper,

Method:

boil the potato cubes for a few mins in some water and salt, drain them. In a pan melt the butter, and saute the garlic for a few seconds, add in the potatoes, onion and the bell peppers(Use different color ones to make it look more colorful). Fry for a minute or so, whisk the eggs together(I used 2 full eggs and 2 egg whites, to keep it lighter). Add in the eggs, make sure the heat is at simmer. Dont try to mess with the egg too much, just let it sit on its own, may be help it to sit by tilting the pan around. Sprinkle some salt, and add the grated cheese. Cover the pan with a lid and let it cook for a min. Once done flip to cook the other side, but only for a few seconds, you dont want it too become to crispy. :) Serve with 2 slices of toasted bread, enjoy.

P.S: Add any sorts of veggies you like, go crazy.. customize to your taste.. :P
