Welcome to cooking with Debbie, Shira and our guest chef Nancy Drew. Shira's sister gave her a Nancy Drew cookbook for Chanukkah this year and we decided it would be fun to go through the cookbook and make all the recipes. And we will share our experiences with you faithful readers. (Obviously we've watched too many movies and this is crazy similar to Julie and Julia but who cares it's fun and we get good food out of it!)
First task: Hollow Oak Nest Eggs
You probably know it by many other names, but basically what you do is take a piece of bread, cut out a circle in the middle. Put the bread on a frying pan and let it brown then flip it over. Break an egg and put it in the hole of the bread, sprinkle some salt and pepper on it then let it cook. Leave it on a low flame for a few minutes until it's done.
Tip from Debbie and Shira: make the hole big enough for the yolk, and also be careful with the pepper, there's a possibility that too much might come out at once =)
We may have had a little trouble getting everything together especially since Debbie doesn't like the white part of the eggs and we ended up flipping our bread to cook the eggs better but the end result was delicious! It's quick and easy and really filling. Plus super tasty.
So here's to a nutritious and delicious and easy to cook and clean up afterwards breakfast.
We hope to blog all of our adventures in cooking with Nancy Drew but since we both lead incredibly busy lives we might not be able to be so consistent.
Stay tuned for more clues to good cooking!
Love,
Debbie, Shira and of course Nancy Drew
Nancy Drew would be so proud. But actually, she had like, a slave so I'm sure she didn't *actually* cook alot herself.
ReplyDeleteshe was NOT a slave! she was the housekeeper that lived with them since Nancy's mother died when she was 3. GOSH!
