The Perfect Weekend Breakfast

Homemade hash browns, poached egg and grilled tomatoes, with a cup of Yorkshire Tea. 🙂 What more could you want?

I have to give full credit to my boyfriend for cooking this delicious breakfast. If you’ve ever been lucky enough to have a meal cooked by Mr L, you will understand the waiting, hunger, and anticipation that accompanies the delight of the meal. He whizzes about in the kitchen, creating enticing smells, bangs and crashes. I wait and wait and occasionally peep in to the kitchen to see what’s happening; and widen my eyes and bite my lip watching the pile of washing up grow!

Eventually, it’s ready! And it is always a marvellous delicious treat, more than worth the wait!

I could compare the feeling to the scene in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang when the children are waiting while the dad is crashing about in his room fixing up the old battered car. Days and days go by, and eventually a new, shiny, colourful, amazing flying car comes out!

Okay, so breakfast was not quite that dramatic! But, still you get the picture. Yum yum!

  1. Oh my god, that picture and the fact that there’s hash browns and poached egg there… (poached egg! He does know how to cook.). Yes, that’s a perfect weekend breakfast. 🙂

  2. That looks delicious – I’m particularly impressed by the shape of the poached egg – did he wrap it in something? I wouldn’t swap Yorkshire tea for my Barry’s, though Yorkshire is a very good substitute when the supply chain dries up occasionally 😉

  10. Looks amazing. Have to try that vinegar trick! Did he twirl the water around to get that twisted effect?

  11. Hey people! Everyone is amazed by the poach egg! Mr L dropped a fresh egg into simmering water which had a little vinegar and was swirled. It was a perfect poached egg!

  13. I do agree, the poached eggs looks wonderful! I for one, do not like the tast of the vinegar with my egg, so I use lemon juice instead. I have to give both your boyfiend and you all the credit, as always, some great shots!

  16. I can totally imagine the yolk oozing out of the poached egg! How I wish my boyfriend will cook this for me (usually I’m the one doing the cooking) /: You’re really lucky!

  19. This looks so good. I do hate the pile of dishes later though. Whenever I cook a big meal, I hate the cleanup later.
