  1. Wonderful eggs, very easy to make. They taste even better with a little coconut extract.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I'm an ex-studant now working in my early 20s. I love cooking - there's pretty much nothing I won't try making, but like everything in life I tend to have to avoid the more expensive things (which is pretty much all the best ingredients!) unless it's a relatively special occasion. Although I enjoy flavour, I tend to shy away from spices as I have a habbit of ruining my dishes with over zelous sprinkling, so most of my dishes rely more on well chosen ingredients to provide the flavour than actual added herbs etc.
