Best Egg And Onion Recipes

ONION, FETA, AND ZAATAR EGG NOODLE KUGEL

Steps:

• Cook the noodles according to the package directions, I wouldn't recommend more than 7-8 minutes total. Drain and set aside.
• If using a block of feta, run it through your food processor or blender a few times to get it nice and crumbled. If lacking such an appliance, mashing it up with a fork does the trick too. Drain any excess liquid.
• Mix everything in a large mixing bowl, then pour into an oiled 8 x 8 square pan.
• Bake for 45-50 minutes (55-60 minutes if doubling) or until golden browned on top.

TOMATO, RED ONION AND ROCKET SALAD WITH FRIED EGG, GRILLED CHORIZO AND GRILLED PROVOLETO CROSTINI

Steps:

• Two hours before grilling, remove the provolone cheese from the refrigerator and let sit at room temperature. Letting the cheese sit out in the air will allow the cheese to form a crust and make it easier to grill.
• Preheat the grill to medium-high direct heat, leaving some space for indirect cooking.
• Grill the chorizo, turning occasionally, until nicely charred and hot inside, about15 minutes. Chop roughly and set aside.
• Heat a griddle over the direct heat. Lightly brush the top of the cheese with canola oil and season with salt and pepper. Place on the griddle, seasoned-side down, and cook until the cheese is dark golden brown and crusty, about 5 minutes. Brush the top lightly with oil, season again, carefully flip over and move the griddle to the indirect heat. Continue cooking until the bottom begins to turn light brown and the cheese is melty, covering if need be. Remove to a plate and sprinkle with the oregano and red pepper flakes.
• Brush the bread on each side with some olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill over direct heat for about 1 minute per side-the bread should be crisp and a bit charred outside, but chewy inside.
• Heat a griddle or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the butter and melt. Crack the eggs into the skillet, sprinkle with salt and pepper and cover with another pan. Cook until the whites are set and the yolks still runny, about 3 minutes.
• While the eggs cook, whisk together the vinegar and mustard in a large bowl and season with salt and pepper. Slowly whisk in 1/2 cup olive oil until emulsified. Taste and whisk in the honey if desired. Put the rocket, tomatoes and onions in a large bowl and season with salt and pepper. Drizzle some vinaigrette around the sides of the bowl and gently toss to coat.
• To serve: Smear some cheese on the toasted bread. Top with an egg, chopped chorizo, a drizzle of olive oil and parsley leaves. Serve each crostini with some rocket salad.

EGG BAKE WITH BACON, ONION AND SWISS CHEESE

• Layer half each of the pretzel roll slices, onions, bacon and shredded cheese in 13x9-inch baking dish sprayed with cooking spray; repeat layers.
• Microwave cream cheese in large microwaveable bowl on HIGH 30 to 40 sec. or until softened; whisk until creamy. Gradually add milk, about 1/4 cup at a time, whisking after each addition until blended. Whisk in eggs and Parmesan. Pour over ingredients in baking dish; cover with foil. Refrigerate overnight.
• Heat oven to 350ºF. Bake casserole, covered, 45 to 50 min. or until knife inserted in center comes out clean, uncovering after 30 min. Let stand 10 min.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to boil. Slip the spaghetti into the boiling pasta water, and stir.
• Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until the fat has mostly rendered, about 4 to 5 minutes. (If your bacon is very lean, you can add a drizzle of olive oil to help start the rendering of the fat.) Push the bacon to one side of the pan, and add the onion. Let both cook separately until the onion is tender, about 5 minutes, then mix the two back together. (If you like, you can drain off the excess bacon fat here and replace it with olive oil.)
• Ladle 4 cups pasta water into the skillet with the bacon and onion, bring to a rapid boil, and quickly reduce the sauce. Meanwhile, whisk the egg yolks with 1/4 cup hot pasta water in a small bowl.
• When the sauce has reduced by about half and the spaghetti is al dente, scoop the pasta into the sauce with tongs or a spider. Add the scallions, pepper, and salt to taste. Toss the pasta until it is coated in the sauce and the scallions are wilted. Remove the pan from the fire, and quickly mix in the egg yolks, stirring until creamy. Toss the pasta with the grated cheese, and serve immediately.

EGG, ONION, AND APPLE CROQUETTES

Steps:

• To make the croquettes:
• In a large bowl combine well the hard-boiled eggs, the onion, the apple, the béchamel, the cumin, the lemon juice, and salt and pepper to taste and chill the mixture for 30 minutes. Form the mixture in 1-inch balls, dip the balls in raw eggs, shaking off the excess, and roll them in the bread crumbs, transferring the croquettes as they are made to a baking sheet lined with wax paper. Chill the croquettes, covered loosely, for 1 hour. In a deep fryer or heavy deep skillet heat 2 inches of the oil to 350°F. and in it fry the croquettes in batches, turning them and transferring them to paper towels to drain with a slotted spoon as they are done, for about 2 minutes, or until they are golden. In a small bowl stir together the applesauce and the horseradish. Serve the croquettes with the sauce.
• To make the sauce:
• In a saucepan cook the onion in the butter over moderately low heat, stirring, until it is softened. Stir in the flour and cook the roux, stirring, for 3 minutes. Add the milk in a stream, whisking vigorously until the mixture is thick and smooth, add the salt and the white pepper, and simmer the sauce for 10 to 15 minutes, or until it is thickened to the desired consistency. Strain the sauce through a fine sieve into a bowl and cover the surface with a buttered round or wax paper to prevent a skin from forming. Makes about 2 1/4 cups.

STEAK AND EGG SANDWICH WITH CREAMED SPINACH AND ONION RINGS

Steps:

• For the creamed spinach: Put some ice and cold water in a bowl. Bring a pot of salted water up to a boil. Add the spinach, cook it for 2 minutes, and then transfer it to the ice water to stop the cooking. Drain the spinach in a colander, and then squeeze it with your hands until all the excess liquid has been removed.
• In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium-low heat. Add the onion, garlic and 1/4 teaspoon salt and sweat the vegetables, stirring frequently, until they are soft but have taken on no color, about 6 minutes. Add the flour and stir to create a roux. Cook, stirring continuously to make sure it doesn't burn, for 3 minutes. Whisk in the milk and cook until the flour is completely dissolved and there are no lumps. Turn down the heat to maintain a low simmer and cook for 3 minutes. Whisk in the cream, return the mixture to a simmer, and fold in the spinach. Stir in the nutmeg, cayenne and 2 teaspoons salt. Cook for 2 more minutes and season with additional salt. Keep warm.
• For the onion rings: Heat about 3 inches of oil to 375 degrees F in a large, wide heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat. Whisk the flour, Old Bay and baking powder in a medium bowl. Slowly stir in the club soda until smooth. Working in batches, dip each onion ring in batter to evenly coat. Fry the onion rings until golden brown and crispy, about 2 minutes. Drain the rings on paper towels and immediately season with salt.
• For the steak: Put a large pan over high heat. Allow the pan to get very hot, almost smoking. Pat the steak dry with paper towels. Sprinkle the meat on both sides with the salt and pepper. Add some oil to the hot pan and carefully add the steak. To ensure a good sear, do not move steak in the pan. Cook for 4 minutes, flip, and cook for another 4 minutes for medium-rare. Let the steak rest for 3 minutes before slicing.
• For the sandwiches: Add 1/4 cup of warm creamed spinach to the bottom halves of the Kaiser rolls. Slice each portion of steak in half, or desired-size pieces, and put them on top of the creamed spinach. Add a fried egg to each sandwich and top with Kaiser roll tops. Serve with onion rings.

POTATO AND ONION EGG ROLLS
