Contrary to common belief, eggs are delicious any time of the day. Whether you’re starting your day with scrambled eggs, topping a quick rice dish with a few crispy fried eggs, whipping egg whites for meringue or adding a few boiled eggs to a classic potato salad, eggs are versatile, nutritious and easy to cook with.
Our collection of egg recipes goes beyond classics like eggs benedict or a bacon and egg roll. We’ve included a range of different egg dishes, from simple breakfast recipes to sweet desserts.
For breakfast or brunch, try our poached eggs with creamed corn and green chilli relish, or France-Soir’s light omelette au fromage. Next time you’re hosting a lunch or dinner party, add Dan Pepperell’s devilled eggs and our classic potato and egg salad with bacon and egg vinaigrette to your meal plan – they’re both sure to impress.
If you’re looking for fast dinner ideas, our soba noodle soup with egg, tofu and broccolini and smoked cheddar and onion quiche are both easy-to-prepare recipes that are big on flavour. While Massimo Bianchi’s spaghetti carbonara and Nik Hill’s Scotch egg and piccalilli might take a bit of time and effort but are well worth the wait. We also have decadent desserts, like Lauren Eldridge’s eggnog custard tarts, our classic lemon meringue and a berry and pistachio stacked pavlova.
