  • I had an Idea for Breakfast…

    So, I picked up this little pan at the grocery store, just because it was cute. I’ve used it a few times, and it’s proved useful, and I keep finding new ideas just for it.

    Small, Non-Stick, Silicone handle, oven-safe.

     I spayed it with olive oil, then added some deli-style ham I had. (This ham was the germ of the idea, it seemed to me that the ham was just about the right size and shape for the pan. I didn’t measure, just imagined it in my head. Not a bad fit, if not perfect.

    Right Shape, almost the right size.

    Took two eggs, added some Parmesan and a bit of milk.

    A little Parmesan, and a dab of milk.

    Stir well.

    Stir, Stir, Stir

    Then carefully poured it in the pan, over the ham.

    Add eggs to pan

    This is my wonderful Cuisinart Air-Fry toaster over I received as a Christmas gift a couple years back. To this day, my favorite Christmas gift I’ve ever received.

    This will take store bought, cold fried chicken and make it taste fresh fried.
    (300 degrees for 5-6 minutes on Air-Fry)

    I put the pan in, and turned it on. Previous experiments with eggs in the air-fryer had me set it for 350 degrees and 4 minutes. 

    On the way to yum?

    After cooking, this is how it looked, tiny bit brown, maybe 3 1/2 minutes would be better?

    I did use an oven mitt to remove it. Though the silicone covering won’t melt, it does get hot.

    I flipped it over, and found the bottom completely covered the ham. I had actually hoped the ham would stay on the bottom and crisp up a bit. But that didn’t happen. Oh, well.

    Hmm, that didn’t go into the plan.

    It did taste great though, even without the crispy ham.

    It was yummy. Nor bad for the first try.

    . Maybe next time I’ll try cooking the ham first, then adding the eggs. Even if the eggs surround the ham, it might still stay crispy? Of course, I could try this all on the stove top. The pan will work there, too.
