An egg that looks like a little flower? Janne often makes it at the request of her children. She affectionately calls it "mom's own fault," because she once saw this cheerful breakfast and since then her children want nothing else when they start the day together.
It's those little rituals that make your morning just a bit more special. This breakfast dish is simple, playful, and guaranteed to bring a smile to the table — exactly what Serve Love. Taste Life. stands for: enjoying small, warm moments together.
Ingredients
- 1 egg
- 4 cherry tomatoes
- 1 large slice of bread
- A bit of butter (for the pan)
- Optional: a few flat-leaf parsley leaves (for finishing)
Preparation
-
Preparation:
Cut the cherry tomatoes in half. Separate the egg: separate the egg white from the yolk and keep both apart. -
Making the flower in the pan:
Put a pan on medium heat and melt a little butter in it.
Place the halved cherry tomatoes cut side down in a closed circle in the pan — this will be the "flower." -
Add yolk and egg white:
Carefully place the yolk in the center of the circle of cherry tomatoes.
Pour the egg white around so it "glues" the cherry tomatoes together and forms one nice whole. -
Cooking:
Let the whole cook gently until the egg white is completely set, the yolk shines nicely, and the cherry tomatoes start to color slightly. (Prefer a soft yolk? Keep it a bit shorter; for hard-cooked, cook a little longer.)
Serve
- Lightly toast the large slice of bread if desired. Place it on a plate and put the "flower" on top. Finish with some flat-leaf parsley leaves for an extra fresh touch.
