A simple and delicious way to transform fried eggs into a substantial one-dish brunch or snack dish. I read the basic idea for this recipe somewhere recently, then couldn't find it again, but I added to the original idea - which just had garlic sautéed in the oil before adding the eggs - when I made this for brunch yesterday. I used some wonderfully orange-yolked free range eggs which certainly added to the visual appeal! Everyone loved it, and I'll be making this again! The proportions used could, of course, easily be varied.

SERVES 4 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon lemon juice
3 cups mushrooms, sliced
1 onion, chopped
2-4 garlic cloves, chopped
4-6 eggs
salt, to taste
fresh ground black pepper, to taste
1 tablespoon fresh basil, roughly chopped, for garnish

Directions

1
Heat the oil and the lemon juice in a non-stick pan and sauté the mushrooms, onion and garlic until they are just beginning to soften.
2
Add the eggs, season to taste and fry gently and, if desired, when they are beginning to set, carefully turn them over.
3
Transfer the mushrooms, onion and garlic mixture and the eggs to a serving plate or to individual serving plates and sprinkle with the chopped basil.

Liked it but I didn't care for the lemon taste, will make it again but will prbably use a lot less lemon or substitute it for something else. I also added some corn to it. All in all it was fairly yummy. Thanks for posting this recipe.

I enjoyed this recipe while DH didn't like the taste of lemon in the mushrooms. And usually he loves anything that has lemon. I served it with a toast. Thanks Bluemoon. Made for Best of 2008 cookbooks tag game

Delicious breakfast, which I cut the recipe to serve one. I used two eggs, splash of lemon juice and used some bacon drippings in place of the oil. I also had 1/2 of a baked potato in the refrigerator, so sliced a few from that and threw them in with onion, mushrooms and garlic. Very filling breakfast on a cold moring!! Thanks for sharing bluemoon. Made for PRMR.
