Alternative Breakfast : Fried Asparagus Rolls & Egg

It is always a big personal achievement if I can get

my son to eat anything green!

This is a simple recipe from this book:

which we are currently using.

 It has a chapter on breakfasts which is really useful as I use

this recipe as a good filler for about 10am.

Here's how:

1. Cut the crusts off some wholemeal bread slices ( not granary..it won't roll).

2. Boil some asparagus. It is best to cook for a few mins but my son loves his veg really soft, 

so I have to cook things longer.

3. Let the asparagus cool then roll it from corner to corner in the bread square.

I found it helped to put a cocktail stick through to keep the shape.

4. Fry it in oil.

5. Cook a runny egg for 3 mins in simmering water.

6. Slice off the top of the egg and dip in.

He actually said," Ooh this is nice, will you cook this again!"

A green vegetable...I nearly fell off my stool!
