I made a birthday request in wanting to have something different for breakfast, so Mr C, was very kindly have took me to supermarket last night and let me choose the ingredients for me to make today.
It was not hard to find what i want, after a meaty christmas, i'm fancy fish - so when i saw smoked salmon, the next my hand grabbed the bagels.
Feeling abit nostalgic to my university life at london, where whenever i get to go to central london, i would sometimes treat myself with The Classic - smoked salmon with cream cheese on toasted bagel from The Bagel Factory with a scrummy grande vanilla soy latte from starbucks.... ahh... such good times!
At the end, i really enjoyed my breakfast, and pleased to know something new for Mr C and got a thumbs up for a next time :)
Ingredients
2 large eggs
2 bagels
butter, for spreading
100g packet smoked salmon slices
2 tspn. crème fraîche
A little salt and freshly cracked black pepper
1 tspn. fresh chives, chopped
Method
1)Place the eggs in a small pan of water and boil for 5 minutes, then drain and plunge into a bowl of iced water. Set aside for 10 minutes as this will make them much easier to peel.
2)Preheat the grill to high. Cut the bagels in half and arrange on a grill rack. Cook for 1-2 minutes until toasted. Spread with a little butter.
3)Place the toasted bagel halves on warmed plates and ruffle the smoked salmon slices on top. Add a teaspoon of crème fraîche.
4)Place the already peeled egg, slice it half. Garnish with sprinkle of chopped chive. Season with salt & cracked black pepper.
Happy Cooking!
