Saturday's brunch!
Saturday September home brunch — rice, eggs, vegetables. Standard weekend kitchen routine.
Saturday brunch at home with BB — the standard September weekend kitchen routine continues.
Today’s plate:
- Hot rice base
- Fried egg (sunny-side)
- Stir-fried vegetables
- Pan-seared protein
- Chilli sauce on the side
The Saturday brunch is the most consistent meal of our week. After working through the lockdown and phase 2 era, the format had become genuinely automatic.
Hot rice base was the standard fluffy jasmine.
Fried egg was the M-style sunny-side. Crispy white edges, runny golden yolk.
Stir-fried vegetables today were cabbage shreds with carrot strips, smashed garlic and a splash of soy.
Pan-seared protein was a small portion of sausage rounds — sliced Bratwurst, hit in its rendered fat.
Chilli sauce on the side as always.
We sat at the kitchen table, drank coffee from the V60, ate slow. The Saturday morning rhythm at home had become the most peaceful 90 minutes of the week.
Phase 2 was deep in, but the home weekend brunch had locked in as the default. Lockdown habits worth keeping post-reopening.
Overall: 4.3 / 5. 😋👍🏼 Reliable Saturday brunch — keeping the routine.
