I awoke in an uncommonly good mood this morning. After turning off the TV, getting out of the La-Z-Boy and taking the mutt for his morning shit/walk, I decided to cook myself some breakfast. A quick search of the kitchen turned up the following list of potential ingredients:
- 1 doz. fresh quail eggs
- 1/2 of a large white onion
- 3 heads of garlic
Yes, that’s all there was. Yes, I am a bachelor who watches too much Food Network. No, I’m not gay.
Now, that list doesn’t give me a whole lot of options, recipe-wise. So if I were to ask you to guess what I had for breakfast, and you were to reply, “Bizarro-world mini-omelettes,” you would be correct. I washed it down with a couple big mugs of my favorite genmai-cha, and it was a damn good meal.
By way of contrast, my usual egg recipe calls for chicken eggs, jalapeno cheese, chorizo, onions, garlic, peppers, lots of Cholula hot sauce, and a shot of cheap mezcal. I call it “huevos del diablo.” It’s a great dish if you like drinking in the morning and having diarrhea by early afternoon.
