Birds In the Nest.
Moonstruck is one of my favorite movies. Those memorable lines such as "Everyone up da stairs, everyone up da stairs", "Snap out of it!", and "It's Johnny Cammereri".
One of my fondest moments is when Cher comes down and her mother is preparing breakfast. What she was cooking looked so good to me that I had to telephone my Italian friends to confirm what it was.
Some of them called it "Bird's In The Nest", while the others referred to it as "One Eyed Bandits". Nevertheless, it is a delicious breakfast treat.
Ingredients:
Italian Bread-cut into 2 inch slices.
Eggs-6 whole eggs.
Roasted Peppers- 2 halves in strips.
Olive Oil-1/4 cup.
Salt and Black Pepper- to taste.
Instructions:
Place some of the olive oil in the pan on a medium flame. Take a slice of
the Italian bread and scoop out a 2 inch hole from the center. Place the
bread slice in to the hot oil. Cook until one side of the bread is
toasted. Flip the slice over. Gently crack an egg in to the center of
the toasted slice of bread. Cook for a few minute until the egg firms up
slightly. Flip the toasted slice over gently. Cook a few more moments.
You want the egg to be easy over in the center of the bread. Remove and plate. Place the roasted pepper strips on top of the egg in a crisscross manner. Salt and Pepper to taste. Serve with hot coffee and freshly squeeze juice.
