BRIOCHE BUNS
No-knead brioche buns
Ideal for Suhoor
Mix up these breakfast treats the night before, then all you have to do is bake and eat them warm from the oven
Makes 12
Preparation: 10 minutes
Cooking time: 20 minutes plus overnight proving
Ingredients:
200g butter, very soft
2 tablespoon caster sugar
3 eggs, plus 1 beaten for glazing the next day
500g strong white bread flour
½ teaspoon yeast
1 teaspoon salt
200ml whole milk
Method:
Mix the butter, sugar and eggs in a large bowl – they’ll look a mess rather than coming together nicely. Add the flour, yeast and salt and pour on the milk. Stir the mixture to make a sticky dough (use you hands if you prefer), cover the bowl and leave somewhere cool for the whole day or overnight.
Heat the oven to 190C. Butter a 12-hole muffin or bun tin. Pull off lumps of dough (flour your hands if it’s sticky) and form into a ball. Drop into one of the holes and repeat. Brush the tops with egg and bake for 20 minutes, or until golden and cooked through.
Cook’s Tip
THREE THINGS TO ADD TO BRIOCHE DOUGH
1. Push a plain chocolate button into the centre of each roll and smooth the dough over before baking.
2. Leave out the sugar, add a pinch of paprika to the flour and sprinkle the tops with grated parmesan before baking.
3. Add grated lemon zest to the dough and don’t brush with egg. Instead, once cooked, brush the tops of the rolls with lemon juice mixed with golden caster sugar.
TOMATO BAKED EGGS
Tomato baked eggs
Serves 4
Cooking Time: 1 hour includes 45-50 minutes in the oven
Ingredients
900g ripe vine tomatoes
3 tablespoons olive oil
4 large free range eggs
2 tablespoons chopped parsley
Method:
Preheat the oven to fan 180C. Cut the tomatoes into quarters or thick wedges, depending on their size, then spread them over a fairly shallow 1.5 liter ovenproof dish. Peel the garlic, slice thinly and sprinkle over the tomatoes. Drizzle with the olive oil, season well with salt and pepper and stir everything together until the tomatoes are glistening.
Slide the dish into the oven and bake for 40 minutes until the tomatoes have softened and are tinged with brown.
Make four gaps among the tomatoes, break an egg into each gap and cover the dish with a sheet of foil. Return it to the oven for 5-10 minutes until the eggs are set to your liking. Scatter over the herbs and serve piping hot with thick slices of toast or warm ciabatta and a green salad on the side.
ONE PAN BREAKFAST
One pan breakfast
Ideal for Suhoor
Serves 4
Prep time: 5 minutes
Cooking time: 15 minutes
Ingredients:
4 sausages, chopped
140g button mushrooms
6 eggs, beaten
8 cherry tomatoes, halved
Handful grated cheese (optional)
1 tablespoon snipped chives
Method:
Heat the grill to high.
Heat a medium non-stick frying pan suitable to go in the oven, add the sausages and fry for 3 minutes. Tip in the mushrooms and continue to cook for a further 3-5 minutes. Drain any excess fat and move the ingredients so they are evenly spread out.
Season the eggs, then add to the pan, swirling to fill the spaces. Gently move with a fork for 2 minutes over a low-medium heat until beginning to set. Scatter over the tomatoes, cheese, if using, and chives, then grill for 2 minutes until set. Cut into wedges and serve with your favourite sauces.
SPINACH OMELETTE
Spinach Omelette
Ideal for Suhoor
Serves 4
Ingredients:
200g bag spinach leaves
2 dessert spoons olive oil
1 small onion, finely sliced
1 large potato, peeled and finely sliced
5 eggs
Method:
Tip the spinach into a large colander and bring a kettleful of water to the boil. Slowly pour the water over the spinach until wilted, then cool under cold water. Squeeze all the liquid out of the spinach and set aside.
Heat grill to high. Heat the oil in a non-stick frying pan and gently cook the onion and potato for about 10 minutes until the potato is soft. While the onion is cooking, beat the eggs together in a large bowl and season with salt and pepper. Stir the spinach into the potatoes, then pour in the eggs and cook, stirring occasionally, until nearly set, then flash the omelette under the grill to set the top. Ease the omelette on to a plate, then flip over back into the pan. Finish cooking the omelette on the underside and turn out onto a board. Serve cut into wedges.
