Maltese cuisine is highly influenced by Sicilian and English cuisine as well as Spanish, Maghrebin & Provencal cuisines. Having to import most of its foodstuffs, being positioned along the important trade routes and having to cater for the resident foreign powers who ruled the islands, opened Maltese cuisine to outside influences.I picked a very simple scrambled egg dish from Malta called Balbuljata. It is a great dish to serve any time of the day, but mostly for breakfast. Eggs are cooked along with tomatoes and onions and served with crusty Maltese bread.
Recipe adapted from here.
Ingredients:
Eggs - 2
Tomato - 1 medium, finely chopped
Onion - 1 small, finely chopped
Parsley - 1tbsp, finely chopped
Salt & Pepper - to taste
Method:
- In a small bowl, whisk eggs with salt & pepper.
- Heat 2tsp oil in a nonstick pan; add the onions and saute until translucent and starting to turn light brown.
- Add the chopped tomatoes and cook for 1~2 minutes or until just tender and the mixture thickens a bit.
- Add the whisked eggs and cook on medium heat, stirring constantly. Cook till the eggs are cooked and set but still moist, about 2~3 minutes. Serve immediately along with some crusty bread.
