Breakfast in bed – bagels with spicy, chive scrambled eggs

Because I’m worth it. And so are you…

There’s no better way to recover from a successful Saturday night, than by lounging in bed with tea, warm food and plenty of reading material (cookbooks in my case). The bagels are from the bagel shop on Brick Lane, as usual. Incidentally, fresh, warm bagels are one of the best things I have ever tasted (this thought occurred to me as I was shoveling one into my mouth just 24 hours prior to this breakfast taking place). The eggs are scrambled with the addition of chives, salt and pepper, then finished off with more ground pepper and tabasco. An ex boyfriend of mine, Layo, taught me the secret of beautifully scrambled eggs, that I will now share with you – it’s the slow pace. You keep stirring, on the lowest possible heat, and don’t be tempted to rush the process. Patience in a virtue.
