Do You Have A Favourite Quick Meal?

[scloyd]

Another of my favourites would be 'gypsy bread' or 'eggy bread'. Six large fresh eggs whisked up in a bowl with a shake of salt and a few generous grinds of black pepper.

Pour into a shallow bowl and get a frying pan going with butter melting. Drop a slice of fresh white bread into the egg mix and allow to absorb the mix then turn over and repeat. Pick it up and drop it into your now sizzling frying pan, cook briefly for a minute or two on both sides then repeat until no more egg mix is left.

These are great with some Heinz tomato ketchup and a great quickish treat.....kids love it!

I'm sure this is known around the world in some form or another.

Sounds like our French toast. I love it with maple syrup. A local restaurant here makes it banana bread.

It is indeed very good, Jay! Here in Ohio, we always called it french toast, and served it with powdered sugar or maple syrup- no salt or pepper.
This savory version sounds good, as I like ketchup on my scrambled eggs...........

Scott, I found that out much to my annoyance yesterday. What has Pipes Magazine got against bananas?

B A N A N A!!!

I just posted a query about this on the Pipes Magazine thread.

And yes, I've heard it called French toast over here too,

Cornbread- peanut butter -and syrup

If we have leftover cornbread, we have hot buttered cornbread topped with peanut butter and then pour syrup on top. The peanut butter has to be melting.

My mother would give this to my brother and I as kids for a quick meal from the night before and I would be thoroughly happy. I do it now and then as an adult but my children unfortunately don't like peanut butter. More for me.

Never tried that, but I used to eat cornbread and buttermilk as a kid.

Cheese and pickle, beans on toast, boiled eggs with a slice of cheddar or Wensleydale. I‘m a bachelor for the better part of the summers, and keep all of the above at the ready.

There is a conspiracy against peanut butter, my kids love it but are not allowed to take it to school anything with peanut butter is banned at school

"...boiled eggs with a slice of cheddar or Wensleydale."

You can't beat a hunk of good Wensleydale cheese.....one of the best if not the best regional cheeses of the UK. A good creamy Stilton is a delight too!

It’s damned expensive to import, but once in a while I just need a Branston and Wensleydale sandwich.

"...once in a while I just need a Branston and Wensleydale sandwich."

I don't if you're aware but Branston Pickle comes in two forms, the 'regular cut' and the more recent 'fine cut'.

I prefer the latter as though it's the same recipe, it somehow has more tangy flavour.

Seriously? Y’all get our crap TV, movies, and pop music, but cornbread hasn’t made it across the Atlantic yet?
There are actually several kinds of cornbread. In the South you’ll find either hot water cornbread, which is fried, or the baked variety. In Texas, “Mexican” cornbread is popular. Here in Louisiana, hush puppies are a big deal, and they’re basically a deep fried form of cornbread.

The first I ever heard of cornbread was in the film The Green Mile where Tom Hanks' character gives some to the gentle giant in his cell ?
