A Unique Concoction!
This is a good hearty meal that I developed while living in
Chester, England. It was a concoction that I just threw together one night and
it turned out to be a great mix of flavors that tantalized the taste buds. It
seems to be an odd mixture of ingredients but they just blend together
perfectly and make a good meal. The portion amounts are good for 2 potatoes.
You can easily double it for more people.
INGREDIENTS
2 large potatoes
3-4 large mushrooms
½ small yellow or white onion (or whole onion if you like
onion)
2 tablespoons oil (olive or vegetable)
1 tablespoon butter
1 can Heinz baked beans (English style or other like brand
baked beans)
2 large eggs
½ cup grated Cheshire cheese (sharp or medium cheddar works
too)
3 slices of ham, turkey, or chicken lunch meat
DIRECTIONS
- Pre heat oven to
400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Bake potatoes for approximately 30 minutes or
until potatoes are crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. You can also
microwave them for 10 minutes turning them over half way through. Then
microwave them two minutes more and repeat until they are soft inside.
- Dice onion, 3
slices of lunch meat and slice mushrooms.
- In medium frying
pan, heat 1 tablespoon of oil on medium-high. Add onion and mushrooms and cook
until sauteed. Add meat and stir in until meat is heated up.
- Place your
potatoes on a plate. Slice in half. Slice each half three times length ways and
then put across the other way dicing up the potatoes in small cubes.
- Spread 1
tablespoon butter over warm potatoes so it melts over cubes.
- Take your pan of
onion, meat and mushrooms and spread over top of potatoes.
- Open baked beans
can and dump into a microwave safe bowl, cover and microwave for several minutes heating up beans.
- In medium frying
pan, heat the other 1 tablespoon of oil and cook eggs over easy so that the
yolk is runny.
- Place eggs on top
of potatoes, onion, meat and mushrooms.
- Dump a fair amount
of beans over top of egg.
- Sprinkle cheese on
top.
- Heat up in
microwave 1 minute so all is warm and cheese melts.
- Dig in and enjoy
the different flavors!
I hope you enjoy this unique meal.
