Wagyu ‘w’ Mini Eggs & Mozzarella Cheesy Nest: What a cracking recipe
Again I foray into the world imagination to craft a new dish for the kids‘ lunch and get some of the leftovers gone from the fridge. Yes, this is my style of using up the leftovers. Get creative. Make a plating point to entertain the eyes, as well as the nose and mouth.
I had 200g of defrosted Wagyu sitting there from Orca, some Bagels, and some pre-cooked Quail eggs in brine. And so that became Wagyu ‘w’ Mini Eggs & Mozzarella Cheesy Nest. Jude Jude and Strawberry Blonde devoured this in super-fast time. There is evidence that this is a good meal for the kids to get stuck in. It’s got everything going for it. Beefy, fatty, cheesy, eggy, toasty, and truffley.
Wagyu ‘w’ Mini Eggs & Mozzarella Cheesy Nest
Here she is. I like that a lot. Cutesy served upon the ScanPan platter and then transferred to an individual plate for chow-time. Wagyu ‘w’ Mini Eggs & Mozzarella Cheesy Nest.
Per ‘nest’ you will need;
- 4x pre-cooked Quail eggs – I got from the supermarket;
- 100g of Wagyu striploin – this is super high marbling as you will see from the photo;
- 1x Tsp Black Truffle Tartufata or Truffle oil;
- A handful of grated Mozzarella;
- 1x half of a toasted Bagel;
- 1″ knob of salted butter; and
- Sea salt & cracked black pepper.
Ready, steady, go…
- Sprinkle a good amount of sea salt & cracked black pepper on both sides of the steak;
- Pop that in a dry pan and sear to a nice charred crust on both sides for a few minutes and take her out for rest;
- No need for any oil as the fat in the Wagyu is your natural non-stick;
- Pop the butter into the same pan and throw in the Bagel to toast it again in the butter until golden brown and pop on your platter – this will be incredible as you are toasting the bagel in Wagyu juices and butter – hell yeah;
- Throw the eggs in the pan now and spoon in the Tartufata – move that around to warm the eggs and get the flavours muddled;
- That’s the cooking part – now to the plating;
- Pop the butter-toasted Bagel down on a platter and sprinkle over a nice layer of Mozzarella cheese;
- Arrange the cooked Tartufata eggs in the Bagel hole;
- Cut the Wagyu into thin slices and arrange them on top of the Mozzarella – the heat will cause the cheese to melt to delicious gooey; and
- Serve that bad boy up – a stunner.
