SLOW-SCRAMBLED EGGS WITH POTATOES, MUSHROOMS, AND BACON

Steps:

• Put the potato dice in a small pot, cover with cold water, and add a pinch of salt. Bring it to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer until cooked through but still firm, about 5 minutes. Drain and cool. In a medium skillet, cook the bacon until crispy. Remove it with tongs or a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Add the potatoes to the leftover bacon fat, and cook over medium heat until golden brown and crisp on all sides, about 7 minutes. Add the mushrooms, season with salt and pepper, and continue to cook until mushrooms are tender and lightly brown. Drain any excess fat from the pan and set it aside while you cook the eggs.
• Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a small, heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium-low heat. In a medium bowl, lightly beat the eggs and cream. Pour the eggs into the pan and stir with a wooden spoon or plastic spatula until they just begin to thicken, about 10 minutes.
• At this point, lower the heat, add the remaining 2 tablespoons butter, season with salt and pepper, and continue to stir. Don't cheat-in order to make the eggs as creamy as possible, it's important to stir gently and continuously, and take your time. When the eggs begin to thicken, after about 5 minutes, remove the pot from the heat.
• Warm the brioche or toast the bread lightly. Set the potato-mushroom mixture over medium heat, add the bacon, and warm thoroughly. Return the eggs to low heat and cook until they will just barely hold together and resemble a thick, creamy sauce, then spoon them over the brioche or toast. Spoon the potato mixture over or around the eggs and sprinkle with chives.

BACON AND EGGS WITH TOMATOES AND MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• In a large skillet, melt the butter on medium high heat. Add the mushrooms and cook for 3 minutes, or until browned. Transfer the mushrooms to a plate and keep warm.
• In the same pan, fry the bacon for 5 minutes, until crisp and brown, then transfer to a plate lined with paper towels. Pour off the drippings, before adding the sausages to the pan and cook over medium heat for 8 minutes, or until cooked through. Transfer ro a plate to drain.
• Pour the fat from the skillet onto a separate dish, and return 1 tsp of the bacon fat to the skillet to use to fry the tomatoes for 3 minutes per side. Arrange the tomatoes on 2 breakfast plates.
• Add 1 tbsp bacon fat to the skillet, fry the eggs over medium low heat to desired doneness. Arrange the eggs between the two plates.
• In the same pan, quickly fry the bread slices for 1-2 minutes, until golden brown, adding more bacon fat, if necassary. Arrangethe hot bread slices, bacon, sausages, and mushrooms on the plates. Serve immediately.
