Advantages: speedy yummy meals
Disadvantages: washing up
Bacon and new potato omelette
6 eggs
4 slices smoked back bacon
1 white onion
4-6 new potatoes
Oil
Salt
Pepper
I usually use leftover new potatoes for this, if you do have leftover potatoes it makes this dish even quicker but if not just peel and quarter the potatoes and cook till tender in a lightly salted water and drain and put to one side.
Next peel and finely chop the white onion before frying it in a little oil till it becomes tender.
Cut the bacon into small bite size pieces before adding to the now tender onions and frying till crisp.
Now add the new potatoes to the onion and bacon.
Crack the six eggs into a bowl and add a little salt and pepper to taste. 'Scramble' this mixture in the bowl, before add to the pan with the bacon, onion and potatoes.
Stir to combine the ingredients, before leaving for the bottom to 'set'.
When the bottom of the omelette is 'set' transfer to a preheated grill until the top is also set and lightly golden brown.
Turn the omelette out on a plate or chopping board, before cutting into portions. This serves four when it is served with a side salad or even some chunky chips or wedges.
This even saves even more time as any leftovers can be used for lunch the next day.
Enjoy!
Fish parcels
This recipe is per person but just multiply for extra portions. I use salmon, but it works well with most fish.
Fillet of salmon
½ Red Peppers
¼ Red onion
6 cherry tomatoes
2 spring onions
Salt
Pepper
Butter
Soy sauce
Vegetable or fish stock
Kitchen foil
Prepare your vegetables by dicing your red pepper, finely slicing your onion and removing the roots from the spring onion and shredding lengthways.
On a length of foil making sure it's wide and thick enough to hold and wrap the salmon and vegetables. Add a couple of dots of butter before placing the vegetables on the middle of the foil for a bed for the salmon.
Season the salmon with a little salt and pepper before placing on the vegetables. Place the cherry tomatoes around the salmon.
Gather the foil to make a parcel which closes at the top.
Now add a generous dash of soy sauce and a couple of table spoons of the stock to create steam.
Securely close the top of the foil, and place the parcel of a baking tray to prevent it leaking onto your oven.
Put in a preheated oven at 200oc for 20-25 minutes.
Summary: enjoy
