Hi all
Yesterday I bought a box of eggs & a bag of potatoes, with a view to using them for meals this week.
I got to thinking , these are some of the cheapest ingredients - that most people on a budget can afford, and surely the most versatile!
What combos can we come up with for these 2 ingreients of kings? I found myself thinking of only a couple - so I'll start:
1. Egg & Chips
2. Spanish omelette ( adding in mushrooms, peppers, sausage, whatever is in, but fine on its own otherwise)
Any other thoughts or recipes on these 2 ingredients?

Tortilla - the "spanish" omelette served cold as tapas.
Delia's Recipe
Another recipe but there seems to be little difference, if any, between them.
Delicious with a salad - but I have to add a dollop of Tommy K to mine

Well, haven't actually done this for a while! The dear old lady who gave me the recipe about 35 years ago suggested poaching an onion in water until soft, then using the water as the liquid for a cheese sauce and stirring in the chopped onion as well. She was a dom.sci. teacher many years ago, and we lodged with her while waiting for our first house to be built. She gaveme loads of what I recognise now as OS ideas! I was then just two years married and about to have my first proper home so grateful for all ideas!Hi
I know how to do cheese sauce - but was wondering about the mechanics of cheese and onion sauce? How do you do that please?
I guess you could also fry the onion in the butter used to make the roux for the sauce?Resolution:
