Salmon and Camembert eggs with Cranberry

Suitable for: Normal eating, Post Op Diet Mush 

Ingredients: 
1 large egg
egg cup of milk
50g Salmon
30g Camembert
Tablespoon of Cranberry Jelly

Egg coddler or Ban Marie needed. If neither, then create one using a roasting tin, ramekin or small bowl, hot water, tin foil and the oven.

While the kettle is boiling your water, set the oven to 200 deg cel. Layer in your bowl the Camembert, salmon and top it off with the cranberry jelly.

Whisk an egg with the milk then pour over the salmon and cheese until it comes to just below the top of the bowl. Cover in tin foil.

Pour hot water into the roasting tin and place the small bowl in the middle of the hot water. The water should come up to just below the top of the bowl.

Place into the oven for 30-40 mins, until the egg is solid and it is springy to the touch.

Ingredients
100g Fage 0% Total Greek Yogurt
20g tomato puree
squirt of lemon juice
if you want, a little bit of balsamic or worstershire sauce

Mix it all in a bowl really :)

Works great in the mushy stage to add to other things, like salmon or crab and would work as a sauce in every day eating.

Salmon and Brie eggs

Suitable for: Normal eating, Post Op Diet Mush

Ingredients:
1 large egg
egg cup of milk
50g Salmon
40g Brie

Egg coddler or Ban Marie needed.

I don't have an egg coddler so I set up a pan of hot water, with a small ramekin inside to keep my main bowl off the bottom of the pan. In my small bowl I layered a the brie and salmon, then mixed the eggs and milk in a separate bowl.

It's here I thought in the future I might add some paprika or other spices as the brie was a little strong.

Rest the bowl of ingredients onto the ramekin and make sure the bowl doesn't fall over into the water.

Let it cook for about 30 mins or until the eggs are pretty much solid.

Still a work in progress though.
