tipsy eggs and forest fries

My dad has been making cottage fries since I was a little kid. He used to make all kinds, from spicy cubes doused in salsa, to salt and vinegar potatoes that tasted just like chips.
The trick to perfect cottage fries every time is to use baked potatoes that are chilled overnight in the fridge. The potatoes take on a firm, but tender consistency that holds up perfectly in the frying pan.
These cottage fries are of the salt and vinegar variety but are also full of sweet, spring shallots and studded with succulent portobello mushrooms.
Serve with tipsy eggs for a well-rounded vegetarian breakfast.


Forest Fries~ serves two
2 baked potatoes, kept in an airtight container overnight in the fridge
1 portobello mushroom, gently washed and diced
1 spring shallot, fine julienned
apple cider vinegar
salt
black pepper
olive oil

Start a pan with olive oil and toss in the shallots. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, then add the mushrooms. Keep the oil on hand in case they dry. Once the mushrooms begin to darken, cube the potatoes (skin on) and toss them in with a generous splash of apple cider vinegar. Be sure to add a little more oil if it looks dry so that the potatoes will brown properly. Stir to let all sides of the cubes become crisp. Taste a fry and add vinegar and salt to your preference. Serve with tipsy eggs.

Tipsy Eggs~ serves two
2 eggs
white wine
water
butter
salt
hot paprika

Start a pan with a pat of butter on medium heat, being careful not to let the butter darken. Whisk the eggs with a few Tbs of water and a Tbs of white wine. Add a pinch of salt and a sprinkling of paprika. Scramble the egg with the butter. Serve with forest fries and fresh, chopped 'flatleaf' parsley.

Happy Thanksgiving on Tiramipursuit!

Happy Thanksgiving everybody!
Here are some pictures from what I made yesterday and today. I worked all yesterday and today and then got to go to two family gatherings. Now we're all home and I'm watching Elf with my siblings and parents.
I wanted to share my pictures from today and I'll share the recipes over the next few days! I hope everyone had a chance to spend time with loved ones today!

Vegetarian stuffing from scratch! Turned out pretty good!

London!

Been getting all settled in here. Moved into my apartment with my three other roommates. They're all really nice and fun!
Gone out to a bunch of pubs, learned how to play darts...
Let's see...
We had an absolutely fantastic bus tour of London the other day ( : The guide was hilarious and did not stop to breathe for a moment the whole time!
I have been taking the underground to school. It's fun and public transit over here is SO GOOD!! I wish we had that at home! But I guess things are way more spread out at home anyway ( : But it's just so reliable and easy.
Had some good food. They have a lot of vegetarian food here. There is really great pre-packaged food at every cafe and everything that is vegetarian has a huge "V" on it, so it's really a no-brainer ( ;
One of the pubs we went to has an open mic on Thursday nights, so I might go do that in the next few weeks.
I have yet to contact my family over here, but I hope to soon.
Been learning so much about London and life and my classes started yesterday. They're really good.
Much love to you all at home!
