When I woke up to find one lone egg in the carton this morning, was I defeated? Did I hop into the shower, get dressed and make my way to the supermarket to stock up on breakfast food? Of course not. I considered it a personal challenge – to make the best damned one-egg burritos I possibly could.
I rummaged through the fridge, rounded up whatever ingredients to make this bad boy. And it was pretty fantastic. You’re welcome.
{ The One Egg Breakfast Burrito }
Serves 2
- 1 egg
- Dash of milk
- 1 carrot
- 1 avocado
- Butter
- 1/2 tin of tomatoes
- Cumin
- Curry powder
- Tortillas
Directions:
- Melt butter in a pan. Add half tin of tomatoes and simmer.
- Chop up the carrot and add that to the pan too. Sprinkle half a teaspoon of cumin and half a teaspoon of curry powder to the mix and allow to reduce.
- In a bowl, whip egg with dash of milk and add to pan once carrot is cooked – don’t cook them too much, make sure they’re still crunchy.
- Once the egg mixture looks reasonably edible, not a liquidy mess, it’s ready.
- Toast your tortillas, cut up the avocado and you’re done.
- Make yourself a tea, and a couple of arepas if you so desire (and you know I do), and breakfast is served. Mission accomplished!
