Crack an egg to celebrate World Egg Day!

Today egg lovers worldwide will be cracking an egg and making something delish to celebrate World Egg Day. Yes, it’s really a thing. And no wonder, since eggs are staples in countless cuisines around the globe … think bobotie in South Africa, shakshuka in Tunisia, a delicate quiche in France, Tamago Sushi in Japan. eggs play a central role in meals globally.

Besides being delicious, affordable and versatile, they pack a high punch as a source of a quality protein, healthy fats, and a host of vitamins and minerals that together support muscle growth, bone health, brain function, immunity, weight management, and decrease the risk of many lifestyle diseases.

To celebrate, there are some exciting competitions on the South African Poultry Facebook page EGGcellentFood and Instagram page eggcellentfoodsa , and we’ve got this make-ahead dish that’s suitable for breakfast, lunch or dinner. The perfect family-sharing meal for four.

Make-ahead Ham and Egg Sandwich Bake
You’ll need:
8 slices bread of your choice, soft butter, for spreading, 4 slices sandwich ham, 300 g ball mozzarella, grated, 3 eggs, 250 ml milk, 1 tsp mustard powder, salt and pepper, and a handful thyme (optional)

To make:
Spread the bread with butter and make sandwiches with the ham and mozzarella, reserving a handful of mozzarella for sprinkling on top. Slice each sandwich into two triangles. Arrange in a 16 cm x 25 cm baking dish.
Beat together the eggs, milk and mustard. Season with salt and pepper. Gently pour all over the sandwiches. Cover and refrigerate overnight to soak.
Preheat the oven to 180°C. Bake the dish for about 30 minutes or until the liquid has set.

Sprinkle over the remaining mozzarella and bake under a hot grill for about 5 minutes or until the cheese has melted and started to brown in places. Scatter over thyme.

Ring the changes:
Scatter over 200 g diced bacon just before baking.
For a South African twist, replace the ham with 50 g biltong powder. To serve, scatter over a handful of sliced biltong and serve with atchar or chutney.

A trio of unputdownable reads for book club ... S

A trio of unputdownable reads for book club ...

Set in the 1970s in a summer camp in the Adirondack mountains, The God of the Woods is part mystery, part family drama. When a girl goes missing from the camp, it’s tragic. But the fact that she’s gone missing in the same woods as her young brother did 14 years ago makes it somewhat suspicious. The boy was never found, the locals didn’t all agree with the person finally found guilty, stories are murky and characters not all terribly likeable. Liz Moore’s book is brilliantly thrilling, couldn’t put it down! The Borough Press

An all-female boarding house. A new glam and mysterious arrival. Unlikely friendships. Add one deadly secret and an unexpected shocking act of violence and you’ve a thrilling read ... The Brair Club by Kate Quinn - queen of historical fiction. Harper Collins

‘The exact number of German women raped during the dying days of world war two is unknown, but it is possibly as high as 2 million (and many were raped multiple times).’ So writes Josie Ferguson, whose incredible debut novel The Silence In Between is dedicated to ‘those whose stories deserved to be heard’. A heart-breaking historical fiction story of family, fear, hope and the atrocities of war. It’s fiction based on fact … and the most far-fetched events which are seemingly unrealistic are all horribly true. It’s not an easy read, but it’s beautifully written, compelling, and will stay with you long, long after you turn the last page. Penguin
