At this time of year, the Red Stick Farmers Market is bursting with produce and especially with color. After returning home with our weekly supply of fresh items, we realized we could make a breakfast using all market items, except the parsley from our herb garden. The freshness bursts in your mouth with every bite of this dish.
Mais C’est Bon!
Enjoy!!
Fresh Market Breakfast
2 eggs
2 slices toast (Dark Rye)
1 ear of corn
½ Creole red onion
½ red sweet pepper
Omi’s Creole Remoulade Sauce
Tomato
Parsley
Salt & pepper
We generally add a pinch of salt as we begin to cook each item.
Maque Choux
Clean pepper; cut in long strips. Roast peppers in greased iron skillet on medium high heat.
Shuck and clean corn; cut kernels from cob. When peppers are about half done, add corn and continue roasting. Peppers should be slightly blackened and corn should begin to brown.
Remove corn and peppers from skillet. Add thinly sliced rinsed onions to skillet and roast until they begin to caramelize (begin to turn brown). Add onions to pepper and corn, set aside.
Cook eggs to your liking (fried, poached, etc.). Season eggs.
To toasted bread add approximately 1 Tbl Remoulade sauce, sliced salted tomato, place egg on tomato, garnish with chopped parsley or basil.
Mix Maque Choux well and serve on side.
We added sliced tomatoes although you could add fruit instead.
