A new way to enjoy Catalan cuisine
Ada Parellada, a renowned expert in reinterpreting traditional Catalan dishes at her restaurant Semproniana in Barcelona, surprises us with an innovative proposal to simplify life in the kitchen. Instead of spending hours deciding what to cook, the Catalan cook presents us with three delicious recipes that revolve around a common ingredient: eggs.
In a detailed video, Ada Parellada guides us step by step through the preparation of a snowy bun, battered eggs, and an open-face omelet, proving that with a little creativity, eggs can become surprising and delicious dishes.
Snowy bun
For this recipe, you will need one bun per person, sobrasada, brie cheese, eggs and salt. The preparation involves separating the yolk from the white, whipping the white until stiff, filling the bun with sobrasada and brie cheese, adding the egg yolk and finishing with the whipped white. After baking at 180°C for 10 minutes, the snowy bun is ready to enjoy.
Battered eggs
This recipe calls for eggs, dried breadcrumbs, parsley, basil, Parmesan cheese, flour, mashed potatoes, and sunflower oil. The eggs are boiled for 4 and a half minutes, cooled, carefully peeled, coated in batter and fried until golden brown. Finally, they are served over hot mashed potatoes.
Open omelet
The ingredients for this recipe include Mahón cheese, ham, pine nuts, oregano, parsley, salt and olive oil. The preparation consists of beating the eggs with salt, pouring them into a hot pan, adding the cheese, ham, pine nuts, oregano and parsley, and serving.
These innovative recipes show that eggs can be the basis of delicious and varied dishes, and are ideal for those who enjoy Catalan cuisine and want to experiment with simple but tasty ingredients.
