How to Make Eggs in a Basket

Ingredients:
* Bread
* Eggs
* Butter

Time: About ten minutes.



Take your bread...



...and cut holes in the centre of them (just use a bread knife). Cutting squares is easiest, and allows more room for the eggs. A lot of people cut circles as well; here I've made hearts. Don't cut them too small, or your egg will overflow.





Butter one side of each piece of bread and then butter the frying pan. Add your bread to the pan, buttered-side up.



Crack an egg into the centre of the hole you cut. (Egg was a little too big. Oops.) At this point, if you don't want your yolk to be uncooked, break it with your spatula or a fork or knife. If you're more comfortable doing so, you can break the egg into a cup and then poor it into the hole of your bread.



Flip it over when the down side is toasted.



Take it off the frying pan when both sides are toasted and the egg is as cooked as you want it.

Stir Boil/Stir Fry: Boiling Instead of Frying

My ingredients:
* chicken boob
* broccoli
* snap peas
* onions
* soy sauce

Time: About ten minutes start to finish.



001 - Put water in a pot and add soy sauce. Put stove on high.

002 - Chop the broccoli and chicken; make sure the chicken is thin enough to cook.

003 - Add soy sauce to chicken and mix evenly.

004 - Add snap peas and chopped broccoli to the water after it starts boiling. Turn stove to medium if necessary.

005 - Chop onion.

006 - When the broccoli and snap peas have cooked long enough that they are soft, add the chicken. (Swirl and separate chicken if they clump together.)

007 - After the chicken is fully cooked, add the chopped onions for a couple minutes. Don't cook them too long, or they will get soggy and lose their flavour.

008 - Turn stove off, and drain water from mixture (strainer is helpful).

009 - Put onto plate or into bowl, add some extra soy sauce and mix it up.

010 - Enjoy!
