Bauernfrühstück
German breakfast dish
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Bauernfrühstück (German pronunciation: [ˈbaʊ̯ɐnˌfʁyːʃtʏk] ⓘ; lit. 'farmer's breakfast') is a warm German dish made from fried potatoes, eggs, green onions, parsley, and bacon or ham.[1] Despite its name, it is eaten not only for breakfast but also for lunch and dinner.
Typical preparation
It is similar to the somewhat simpler English bubble and squeak. The ingredients are mixed in a pan and fried as an omelette. It is usually accompanied by a green or tomato salad or gherkins, and rye bread.
