Usually eggs are either boiled or regular scrambled eggs are cooked. In the meantime, a real culinary miracle can be made from this wonderful product. Here are 10 original recipes that can perfectly complement your menu.

Every time you cook regular scrambled eggs or boil soft or hard-boiled eggs, you lose the opportunity to try this healthy product in a new way. But you can get the same amount of protein, but at the same time try an original, tasty dish, moreover, aesthetically pleasing in appearance. Here's a selection of new ways to cook eggs and spice up your meals.

1. Egg baskets

For cooking, you will need muffin baskets, bacon and eggs. Roll up thin slices of bacon in a basket, break an egg in the middle of the basket and bake it all in the oven.

2. Scrambled eggs with yolk, medium cooked

If you like a slightly liquid yolk, but not so much that it flows out, you can cook the eggs like this: break the egg into a greased frying pan, cover and do not turn until tender. Thanks to the lid, the yolk will bake better.

3. Golden eggs

The French cook this dish for Easter, but you can eat it every day. The basis of the dish is a cream sauce made from flour, butter and milk. First, cook the eggs hard-boiled, then separate the white from the yolk at the finished egg.

Finely chopped protein is mixed with cream sauce. After that, the prepared sauce is spread on toast, and the yolk is crumbled on top.

4. Crispy poached eggs

These eggs can often be seen in various French salads. First, boil a soft-boiled egg, then roll in breadcrumbs and fry for 30-60 seconds in a greased skillet. The dish is crispy on the outside and soft on the inside.

5. Scrambled eggs in the microwave

If you're too lazy to boil or fry your eggs in the morning, you can make it easier. Crack a raw egg, beat a little to mix the yolk with the white, add the green onions and ham and pour it all into a regular coffee mug. One minute in the microwave and your breakfast is ready.

6. Croutons with cheese

Soak bread slices in milk-based sauce, sprinkle with cheese and bake in a baking dish with eggs, milk and mustard.

7. Omelet rolls

Beat the eggs, pour them into a greased skillet so that the layer of raw eggs is about 2 cm thick. Wait for the eggs to cook on one side, then turn the omelette, place on top anything you would like to wrap in a roll, for example chopped ham and pepper. After the other side of the omelet is cooked, simply roll it into a roll.

8. Egg soufflé

Initially, soufflé was made from eggs, we just forgot about it since the chocolate soufflé appeared. But you can always make an egg soufflé at home. This requires four yolks, three whites, a little milk, butter and flour. It turns out an airy pleasure.

9. Pancakes ableskiver

This is a Danish dough dish, but it contains more eggs than the dough itself. To begin with, beat the egg whites until thick foam, then in a separate bowl mix the flour, salt, sugar, yolks, butter, buttermilk and add the whipped whites.

The finished dough is poured into a special greased mold. After the bubbles appear, the pancakes must be constantly turned over in the depression so that they do not burn.

10. Lush omelet

You've probably tasted this kind of omelet in cafes or restaurants, but you couldn't cook an equally lush dish at home.

Here's a recipe to make a really fluffy omelet.

For an omelette you will need:

• large eggs (separate the yolks from the proteins) - 4 pcs.;
• water - 50 g;
• butter or margarine - 1 tsp;
• a pinch of salt;
• a pinch of ground black pepper.

Preparation:

1. Preheat the stove to 160 ° C.
2. In a medium bowl, combine egg whites, water and salt and beat with a mixer at high speeds. In a small bowl, use a mixer to combine the yolks and ground black pepper for about three minutes. Pour the yolks into a bowl of beaten egg whites.
3. Melt the butter in a preheated skillet and pour the beaten eggs onto it. Reduce heat slowly to low, cook for about five minutes, or until omelet is fluffy and light brown on the underside (lift gently to see color).
4. Continue cooking the omelet for about 12-15 minutes. Check the readiness with a knife: if you manage to stick it in the middle and get it clean, the omelet is ready.
5. Tilt the skillet to slide the omelet onto the plate, carefully fold it in half, and serve with salsa or tomato-based sauce.
