  • I moved in July from Sydney to Brisbane and had to get rid of my chickens. But I always sold part of my production or give away to a neighbour who would give me raw honey in exchange :)
    Besides that we used our eggs for; scrambled eggs for breakfast, pancakes, quiches, omelets, boiled egg in the lunchbox/afternoon snack, avocado filled with egg, hidden egg in veggies au gratin in the oven and for baking.


  • I would make quiches and use the eggs for baking!


  • Curried eggs, meringue, quiche, ice cream, cakes,

    Preheat the oven to 190C/375F/Gas 5.
    Meanwhile, steam or boil the peas, broad beans, asparagus and green beans until al dente then drain. Refresh the vegetables in iced water and drain well.
    Line the chilled pastry case with aluminium foil and baking beans and bake for 15 minutes.
    Beat the eggs, cream and milk in a bowl, then add the parsley and season with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
    Remove the tart tin from the oven, discard the aluminium foil and baking beans and reduce the oven to 180C/350F/Gas 4.
    Place the tart tin on a baking tray, arrange the blanched vegetables, watercress and tomatoes over the base of the pastry case and pour over the egg mixture. Bake for 30-40 minutes or until the filling is set, then remove the quiche from the oven and set aside to cool slightly before removing from the tin.


  • Creme brulee is a delicious dessert which uses up eggs but it is quite time consuming.
    I also make friands for using up eggs.
