Finally! my first meal from the garden this year! Even though there aren’t any fruits and veg growing yet, there’s still a ton you can do with what’s available in early spring.
This morning I made eggs with sorrel, japanese mustard greens, lemon thyme and marjoram with viola garnish, and it was so good! If you aren’t growing these in your garden, any greens and herbs will do (like nasturtium leaves, radish greens, and pea shoots, for example).
All you have to do is crack 2 eggs into a hot pan with a bit of olive oil in it, then add 2 chopped mustard leaves, one minced sorrel leaf, chopped marjoram, the thyme leaves and a bit of salt and pepper and wait till the eggs are almost cooked through. Then flip, wait a second and they’re done! serve with brown bread and garnish with viola flowers. I also added a bit of grated parmesan cheese. I can’t think of a better way to start a day off 🙂 Plus this takes MAXIMUM 5 minutes to make, so if you’re in a hurry or really hungry after work these are perfect.
et voila!
