fried horseradish grits with poached eggs and braised beef

 

You know what's great for breakfast? Leftovers. This weekend we had a lot of leftovers - mostly from a dinner get-together with friends. So we threw in some eggs and called it breakfast.

 

 

First we fried up some grits...

 

 

Then poached the eggs, added leftover braised beef, and chowed down.

 

Simple but so, so delicious. Do you get creative with leftovers in the morning?

 

 

Fried Horseradish Grits with Poached Eggs and Braised Beef

 

Ingredients:

1 Tbsp horseradish

2 cups leftover cooked grits

1 tbsp butter (we used salted)

4 large eggs

about 1 oz braised beef using this recipe from Add a Pinch

salt and pepper to taste

 

Directions:

Combine the grits and horseradish and form the grits into four equal patties. Melt the butter in a pan on medium. Fry the grits patties just until they begin to brown and form a crust.

 

While the grits are frying, poach the eggs in a separate pot.

 

Using a spatula, remove the grits patties from the frying pan and place two each on a plate. Add the beef to the pan just to rehaet. Top each patty with a poached egg and season with salt and pepper. Divide the beef and arrange it over the tops of the eggs. Serve immediately.
