Episode #07 - Wake and Bake! Sunday Breakfast Menu (1 of 2) - Italian Cooking

A good Sunday breakfast menu would be: Spinach Frittata, Berries Fruit Salad, a great cake...to be enjoyed with the second round of coffee. Kids will happily eat eggs with vegetables and all the fruit you might want/need to shove into their faces, before they actually get to enjoy a fabulous organic cake.

FRITTATA
Ingredients:
8 Brown grade AA eggs
2 Tbsp of fresh grated parmesan
1 Tbsp of butter
1/4 Cup of whole milk
Salt and Pepper

Brake the eggs in a bowl.
Add the Parmesan, the Milk, Salt and Pepper.
Mix well all the ingredients...using a fork is the best...use your wrist!
In a large non stick pan, melt the butter on a low flame....melt it, do not bring it to a boil...

When the butter is melted and well spread into the pan, and your eggs are properly mixed, ...it's time to check the fridge...are there any left overs you would like to add to your frittata? If so, add them directly into the bowl, mix it up well and cook.
If you intend to saute' some vegetables from scratch, before you actually make your frittata (like I did in this episode), make sure you take them off the stove and mix them with the eggs before you put them back into the pan.

Pour the eggs into the pan, and cover with a lid.
On a medium low flame (more on the low side to prevent burning the bottom), your frittata should be ready in about ten minutes. When ready, take the lid off and let it rest for a few minutes, then gently slide the frittata on a serving plate...do not cut in the pan, unless you are using a wood knife, you will destroy the non stick layer.

BERRIES FRUIT SALAD
Ingredients:
I do not do weight on this...I go to the store and I get their regular berries plastic little boxes.
To serve 4, and possibly have some left overs I buy four boxes, one for each berry.
Three Oranges and a Lemon...more or less, and some Pinoli Nuts if you like them, some fresh Mint is a great final touch.

Wash the berries, squash your citrus, add the Pinoli and the Mint, shake well and put it in the fridge

CAKE
Ingredients:
1 box of Dr Oetker Organic Vanilla Cake (requires: 2/3 cup of milk, 1/2 cup of vegetable oil and 3 eggs)
1 egg, I add it to the mix for extra fluff!
1 bar of 85% fine Chocolate
2 Ounces of Walnuts...about...

Butter your pan and preheat the oven. Get the Blender together.
Follow all the instruction in the box and prepare the base for the cake.
In the microwave melt your bar of chocolate, adding some milk (2 Tbsp) will help a lot.

Pour 2/3 of the cake mix into the pan, then add the melted chocolate to what's left and use your blender again.
Now pour your 1/3 of chocolate cake milk into the pan...I like doing a circle, but you can pour it the way you want.

Get the walnuts and push them into the mix, and sprinkle them on top. It's ready for the oven.
Because of the extra egg, and sometime some extra milk, I tend to bake my cake 10 minutes longer, to get the nice crispy top.

Wanna do better than this?
OPEN A BOTTLE OF CHAMPAGNE!

Buon Appetito,
have a good week end!
