  1. Delish recipe - I cut the recipe to 4 eggs and cooked it stove top only. Once I poured the eggs in I covered the pan. I added 2 tsp of Sambal Olek, no salt or pepper. Lovely flavor combination. I made this for dinner and it was very satisfying
     
  2. just realised I didn't put a rating in
     
  3. This was so easy to make. I was out of tomatoes, so I substituted well-drained and blotted, canned diced tomatoes. It worked well. I will make this again, but I think I'll use more salt. Also during the "grilling" stage, I put cheddar cheese on top to melt in. This was yummy. Thanks for sharing catxx.

Here in Australia, we are blessed with an abundance of beautiful fresh produce, and our multi-cultural background has given us lots of wonderful tastes and styles. I've loved food almost all my life (except for a bumpy early start...ate nothing but a slice of apple and a slice of cheese a day for my first two years!). For me, cookbooks are a springboard - I have a taste "on my tongue", I search for appropriate inspiration and voila! something that owes a little to the book, my creativity, and whatever is in my kitchen! That said, I adore Vikki Leng's "A Vegetarian Kitchen" and travel happily through Sheila Lukin's "All Around The World Cookbook". Jamie Oliver is also a favourite, and I've just discovered the Williams-Sonoma baking books!
