Morning!

Today's plans are . . .
B:  egg and bacon roll, tomatoes; strawberries
What it says on the label.  A toasted roll with bacon medallions and a fried egg (done the SW way which I will describe below) and I have just picked the strawberries!
SW:  one healthy extra B for the wholemeal roll

L:  beetroot burger (no roll) and salad; fruit
I saw this in Aldi and thought they were worth trying although, when I got home, I looked them up and found they are four and a half syns each.  Ah, well, could be worse.
SW:  four and a half syns and whatever I have for some mayo.

D:  chickpea and veg curry; strawberries and yogurt
I need something quick this evening and this is from the freezer so just needs re-heating
SW:  all free

Ss:  water

Body Magic:  maybe a walk, bit of gardening.



Frying an egg, SW style.
You need a very small, egg-sized, non stick pan - well, you don't 'need' but it makes life a lot easier - and something to cover the pan.  I use a lid from a larger pan that just works!
Spray a bit of fry light into the pan and heat it to about three quarters full heat.
When it has heated completely, crack the egg into the pan and then cover it immediately.  Just leave it; the heat and the steam will cook the egg through and when the top has turned white, it's done.
It's better to heat the pan first but it can be done from cold, you just don't get that 'fried' bottom to the egg.
And the reason for the small, egg sized pan is because you get a nice, round, contained shape to your egg, not all sprawled out.  That's all.  So if you want it to look more free flowing, use a normal small pan, not an egg sized pan.
