Now that I have more storage space, mum has been bringing over various bits and pieces of my childhood that she had been keeping for me.

This included a whole heap of my books, including all of my old Famous Five Books.  OMG, I loved these,  I must have read each of them a hundred times!  And yes, at some point I will do a post on the food of the Famous Five.  And it will have lashings of ginger beer.

She also brought over my old Brownie Uniform.

Even better than the uniform  was, that, in the pocket was my Brownie notebook and official brownie pencil emblazoned with the Brownie Motto of “Lend a Hand.”

On the first page of the notebook there is a note about a recipe with a big tick next to it.  I started this cooking thing young!   On the second page is a cryptic note saying “Next week jeans + t-shirt not to wear”  I wonder what the hell we were going to do with them…Sadly the rest of the notebook is blank so we’ll never know.

As New Year’s Eve is looming, I thought that in the spirit of “lending a hand” I would share my recipe for Hangover Eggs.  And, all you party revellers can “be prepared” and get in some supplies.  I can’t remember where I found this recipe originally but over the years, it has morphed into the recipe below.

It is however very flexible. You can  add tomatoes to the toast; mushrooms,  fresh chilli, or green or red pepper, or anything else you fancy to the egg mix.  I also find most bought hummus does not have enough tahini in it and I’m far to lazy to make my own so, as per the recipe, I tend to add a bit.  You can do this, use the hummus as is, or leave  it out altogether. It’s your raging hangover, you know what’s going to work best for you!

Oh and this is really too good to be saved just for hangover days, I would eat it every day if I could!

For the healthy, you can wash this down with some green tea maybe with the rest of the lemon juice squeezed in.

For the rest of us, an ice cold coke is the perfect beverage.

For the truly suffering, a small glass of champagne just to top up your levels may be in order!

Ok, I think I’m done…better just check….

  1. Fabulous hangover egg recipe… Make the houmous a day or two in advance (whilst still sober) so you can pack in that lovely tahini kick for the hangover treat.
    Happy new year!! 🙂
