  1. We loved this! Easy to make and delicious - just as the recipe is, but we plan to make the sauce and pour it over other things, a fillet of steamed fish, browned unde the grill? or My Husband plans to pour it over potato wedges as a snack. I had planned to serve this on a bed of spinach, but it was raining heavily when I set off to fetch some from the garden - so maybe next time!
     
  2. Bergy, thank you. This one is a "keeper". I piled spinach onto the toast, covered the spinach with choppped hard-boiled eggs, then poured on the sauce. Tasty! (I'm also looking foreward to pampering myself with Rital's adaptation.)
     
  3. I`m eating this as I post the review. I cut the recipe way back (Just for one)I did make for breakfast.I did use a lot of curry, water instead of broth and cream instead of milk.Served on a bed of spinach! What a way to start the day!
     
  4. Loved this - 1/2 the recipe - tweaked it a bit. Made scrambled eggs with the 4 eggs (don't like my eggs looking at me!) and put on a bed of cooked rice instead of toast. But the sauce and the basic idea was all Bergy's. We loved this as a quick dinner that incorporated curry, eggs and spinach - so healthy, so good.
     
  5. This is a great weekend breakfast treat! I did not have the carrots and I cut the recipe in half (with the exception of the curry, I left the full amount in for personal taste) and it turned out wonderful. Thanks so much for posting - this will be part of the regular rotation!

On January 10 2010 I will celebrate 9 years of Life with Zaar. I can't imagine being without it! It has become part of my daily routine. I feel very privileged to be one of the hosts on the Photo Forum. Taking photos of my culinary efforts is a full time hobby and I love it. My friends all know what to expect when they come to dinner "Are you finished taking pictures?" or "Did you get a photo of so & so?" I never let them wait too long and the food is NEVER cold! I now have over 6000 photos on Zaar - some fairly good and some definitely not so good. I am happy to say that practice does help. My roots are in Vancouver BC Canada - a very beautiful city that holds many wonderful memories for me. In 1990, I decided that for my retirement years I may want to settle in a smaller community and found a slice of heaven in the North Okanagan B.C. I love living here but every once in a while I miss the bright city lights, the Broadway shows and some of the small wonderful ethnic restaurants that Vancouver abounds in. That is easily resolved. I just take a trip to the coast, visit with friends for a weekend see a show and feast on Dim Sum or other specialty foods. I am getting a bit long in the tooth but was a very adventurous person. I have river rafted Hell's Gate on the Fraser river, been up in a glider over Hawaii (no not a Hang Glider!), gone hot air ballooning in the Napa Valley & the Fraser Valley, driven dune buggies on the dunes in Oregon, Para sailing in Mexico and tried many other adventurous, challenging, fun things. I have yet to try bungee jumping or sky diving. I may do them yet. I love to travel and experience other cultures. Mexco has been a favorite haunt. I have visited that lovely country many many times. Australia is another favorite as is England! In the past 16 months I have taken off 61 pounds and feel wonderful. I am off all medications and all systems are GO! In years I may be 79 but in spirit I am still in my forties. We are only as old as we allow ourselves to feel. Always think positive. Do something a bit challenging every day & always do something silly every day. Be a kid again! Laugh every day - it is internal jogging.
