Sunday food porn


To honor a friend, some Sunday food porn.....

I just bought a new camera. While I'm learning it's ways, what better to practice on than this mornings breakfast?

Complicated food, but worth it.

Roast potatoes and onions for an hour in the oven. In this case, Yukon gold tubers and sweet Texas onions.

While they are roasting, fry up some bacon till just crispy.

Let the potatoes and onions cool enough to handle, then slice and dice. Saute the onions a bit more in some bacon grease till the reach GBD (Golden Brown and Delicious).

Stir in the potatoes, some chopped bacon, several cloves of crushed garlic, a big pat of real butter, some kosher salt, fresh ground pepper, and parsley.

Continue sauteing a few more minutes, then pour in eight
eggs blended with a few tablespoons of whole milk.

Grind on some more pepper, then cover with a layer of shredded sharp cheddar cheese.

Bake the whole cast iron pan full of this goodness till GBD is found again. A few moments with the broiler on really caps the crusty cheese taste.

I served the family slices of this with bacon and biscuits on the side.
Those of us with any taste at all also had salsa dolloped on the eggs, and I had sour cream as well.

There are no left overs.
