Munchies

Thought I would start a thread that can be used to chat or talk about food issues, hates or loves. I do comfort eat but also I know its the great human connecting ground, because we all do need to eat, no matter what.

I wondered if some on the forum might relate to this more than the beergarden or the night shift. Hi @Former-Member I was thinking of you but anyone else who is interested may just pop in.

Just had a mandarin, its sweet but lighter flavour than an orange is sometimes just what i need.

Feel free to chat, though.

Cheers

Secret Recipe Curried Egg Toast @Phoenix_Rising @Faith-and-Hope

There's a story behind this: Years ago I worked in a cafe that had the most delicious curried egg sandwiches, but the recipe was a secret and no one was allowed in the kitchen when the owner was making them. If we ran out, that was it, no more that day.

She once told me it had mayo in the mix, but that was probably to make me stop asking, because no mayo I've ever tried created that taste and texture sensation.

Anyway, last night for midnight snack (we all do that don't we??? 🙂 ) I put some ricotta cheese on my buttered toast, then decided I'd double up on the protein and spread some freshly made curried egg on top of it.

I'm pretty sure this is the secret recipe from my cafe working days! Had it again for breakfast this morning and it was still as yummy. So,

Not So Secret Curried Egg Toast Recipe

Ingredients:
6 eggs (boiled until yolks are just set and peeled)
50gm or so butter (butter is better for flavour, margarine will work)
2 flat teaspoons Keen's Curry Powder
1/4 teaspoon salt (edited to reduce the salt - do check for taste for yourself 🙂 )
Buttered Toast
1 tablespoon or so of Smooth Ricotta Cheese

Boil eggs, cool enough to peel. Put still hot eggs, butter, curry powder and salt into a basin or bowl big enough to use your potato masher in. Mash while still hot to cook the curry powder. When well mashed, flatten the egg mixture down in the bowl and leave it to cool a bit.

Make your toast, butter it, spread the Ricotta Cheese on next, then spread a goodly amount of the curried egg mixture over that. Delicious with a cup of tea!

I like to have the first serving of it on toast while it's still warm. Store the rest in the fridge until next snack time. 🙂

Hi @Former-Member ......

I have come looking for your recipe this morning and can’t find it ..... ? .... but I did receive the notification for it.

If it was taken down by the mods there should be an email explaining what needs to be changed about it, or you can return-email this notification and ask .....

Re: Munchies

@Faith-and-Hope How strange.

I have not recieved a notification email about anything wrong with it. I'll email a query through, this is the 2nd time a post of mine has disappeared overnight, without any adjustments being needed. I just put it up again the next morning and it went back into the time line as if it had been there all along.

Hi @Former-Member and @Faith-and-Hope

The post and recipe should be there now! Sorry, a moderator must have accidentally rejected it because I just found it in the archives perfectly fine as it is. We try really hard to get it right, but sometimes (especially in the late hours of the night ) we make a mistake.

Apologies again!

Re: Munchies

Thanks @flipper .... 😊

Sounds yum @Former-Member .... will have to try it this week too ❣️

In response to: Re: Munchies

Re: Munchies

Thank you very much @flipper for fixing that for me. Appreciated.

Hope you enjoy it when you try it @Faith-and-Hope @BlueBay

You could probably mix the Riccotta cheese into the egg too, but it wouldn't last as long in the fridge if you did that, I don't think.

Anyone else got any easy but tasty recipes to try?

In response to: Re: Munchies

Re: Munchies

@Former-Member your not-so-secret recipe sounds AMAZING. I am going to put the ingredients on my shopping list and make it as soon as I can!

I'm not much of a cook at all so I am always keen to learn new easy recipes.
