Perfect for students. Since you're on the bread and egg theme I figured Id add one for you. Eggy Bread. Crack 2 eggs into a bowl, mix, Soak 2 slices of bread with the egg and fry both sides of the bread till cooked (should only take a few mins) Easy Top credit to Mulchie for the laziest recipe on the site.

At least you didn't use so much that it was impossible to eat because of the spice! You're welcome, and I shall indeed keep them coming :) It is quite vital you have a set of scales for a lot of these recipes or it does unbalance flavours – you can usually get cheap ones online or in supermarkets etc, so I’d recommend getting one.

Still was tasty though. Thanks for the recipe and keep em coming!

You may find the chicken needs a little longer, so I would recommend cooking the chicken separately, then adding it at the end just to be safe. You can also try experimenting with multigrain Dijon mustard (mix it with water first in an eggcup to make it easier to mix in), instead of curry powder which I found worked quite well!

I know you said something on the Banana Cake (honorary fish thread), about not knowing what Omega fats etc do - they're basically essential for growth in humans and things like decreasing cancer, but we can't make them within our bodies, so we consume stuff like eggs, special margarine with it in, oily fish, etc because it gives us those bits and bobs we need. Either that, or you can take vitamins for it, which is what I do because I can't stand oily fish For more information if you're THAT curious: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Omega-3_fatty_acid :) EDIT: <blockquote>Also, what happens to the bit of bread that you cut out with the mug? Why use baking-paper, do you hate trees? First you have to bake an egg for 7 minutes in an oven which you will have to preheat for twice that amount of time, depending on how awsome your oven is. SECOND, frying or scrambling eggs for a bread-egg dish is waaaay quicker and nowhere near as messy.</blockquote> It gets dipped in the yolk of course, which is why scrambled egg isn't as good - it's basically just a fancy way of serving a boiled egg and soldiers :p Also, it's a lot more impressive to serve someone a complete (admittedly, mine did go slightly wrong as you can see in the pictures), egg, yolk intact, inside a piece of toast. I use baking paper because I live in a student house so the baking trays aren't brand new, it's also easier to spread butter onto paper, and easier to remove the bread. My oven is awesome, and so actually runs hotter than some ovens because it's a fan oven, and because it's pretty brand new. However, it is your own responsibility to know the quirks of your own oven and to adjust accordingly, which may mean that 7 minutes turns into a lot more. The only way to know how quickly your oven cooks things is to compare it with other cooking times from things such as pizza or chips: if it takes longer than on the packet, then I would turn your oven up by an additional gas mark or 20 degrees when cooking, and vice versa.

One convert today, tomorrow a million. Also, I'm not totally mental.. I was simply trying to fit in with the Yogscast sense of humour. If anything I type is out of place or an embarassment to your site, I hope you won't hesitate to delete it and block me! :) Oh, and I now realise I posted the Fish in a Bag comment on the BANANA Cake (two Ns, not three) page, sorry.. >< Keep up the good work, guys.
