Jordana was in town for work and we met up for dinner. It’s nice to hang out with blogger friends in real life. We had a lot to catch up and did so we some great drinks and food!

We ordered a mushy pea toast with a poached egg to start. Sounds a little strange, right? While we liked the combination of flavours, it lacked salt and the sous-vide egg was a little bland and seemed forced, so we decided to re-create it at home. It’s easy to make and we liked our home-made versions better than the restaurant one. Enjoy!

Sometimes I wonder why I don’t make eggs more often during the week. They are fast and keep you going. But weekday mornings are just crazy – between the kids not wanting to eat breakfast or get dressed, lunches and book bags to pack – I’m lucky if we get out the door on time with something in our bellies. The eggs would just be ignored and that would be sad. So I save them for the weekend, when we’re not in a hurry and can enjoy a breakfast when our bellies are ready for it. Most weekends that would be an hour later than during the week.

This time we added some smoked salmon. It gives the meal a beautiful colour and satisfying salty flavour – adding my usual cream cheese to the bread makes these eggs perfect for breakfast, brunch or a light lunch.Audrey's Egg and Smoked SalmonAudrey's Eggs and Smoked Salmon
