Eggslut Sandwich

Like a lot of people, I watch a lot of Youtube videos. One day I stumbled across a Munchies episode featuring Alvin Cailan, owner of LA restaurant Eggslut. He was cooking up his ‘Ultimate Egglut Sandwich’. This sandwich looked so so good, we just had to try it for ourselves.
Alvin’s recipe calls for fried spam (or pork loin chop), egg and shallots on a sweet Hawaiian dinner rolls served with Sriracha mayo. We altered the recipe a little, we decided to use ham steaks rather than spam, and also substituted the sweet dinner rolls with a plain burger bun. I think a English muffins or Turkish bread rolls would work well also.
We thoroughly enjoyed our variation of Alvin’s Ultimate Breakfast Sandwich, thanks for the epic recipe Alvin!
Have you cooked these yourself? If so, maybe you have done your own variation, be sure to let us know how it turned out.

Big Bertha Brekkie Burrito

Everybody loves a burrito! We LOVE bacon and eggs! It was just obvious that we should cook our own, thus the Big Bertha Brekkie Burrito was born!

This was our take on the ever popular breakfast burrito; bacon, eggs, cheese, and an assortment of fresh ingredients wrapped and and toasted in some multigrain tortilla bread…my mouth is watering just writing about it!

BBQ Smokey Dog

BBQ Smokey Dog, this is our variation of an Office Cooking favourite from our local bakery. Some bakeries use hotdogs or regular beef sausages, we have used some tasty double smoked kransky sausages. This recipe will make 4 BBQ Smokey Dogs, enough for 4 people, or 2 very hungry people, or 1 VERY greedy person!

Enjoy this greasy, meaty & cheesy masterpiece, the BBQ Smokey Dog!

Slow Cooked Pork Ribs & Sweet Potato Mash

Today for lunch we made Slow Cooked Pork Ribs & Sweet Potato Mash, this one required a little bit of prep work the night before. Marinating the ribs overnight in sauce, we used this Kansas City Rib Sauce sauce from Derrick Riches over at about.com which has an awesome taste with a nice chilli kick, we loved this sauce.
This cookup has been one of our favourites and we will definitely be doing something like this again!

Can Toad in a Hole

Cane Toad in the Hole

This is the Aussie version of the ‘Toad in a Hole’ (from the UK I believe), here is our Cane Toad in a Hole!

This one goes back to the beginning of sandwich press time. About the time of the very first ham and cheese toastee the office nomad found themselves searching for something, something different. One man turned that dream into reality when he  cut a hole in a piece of bread, placed it on a press and cracked an egg into that hole. We’ve come a long way since those early days and the modern day Cane Toad in the Hole is now seen to support – salami, mushrooms, cheese, tomato sauce and most importantly bacon and also with optional dragons.

Whole Roast Chicken

Whole Roast Chicken

Whole Roast Chicken – We recently acquired a Lumina toaster oven to use in our office, up until now we had only used it to heat up some frozen pies and the likes. Nothing too exciting, so we decided to give something more adventurous a go. After some interesting discussion we agreed on cooking a small roast, unsure on what kind of roast, we decided to see what we could find at the supermarket.
Nev set off to the supermarket that afternoon in search of the perfect sized piece of meat to roast in our little toaster oven. It was my job to prepare the vegetables to cook up with our currently unknown roast meat.
The next morning he arrived with a bag of goodies, a whole chicken and some ready-to-serve gravy, let the adventures begin!
