The Classic Kaiser Roll Egg & Cheese
Classic NYC breakfast sandwich with creamy scrambled eggs, sharp cheddar, spinach, and mild mustard on a toasted brioche bun.
Ingredients
- 2 large eggs
- 2 slices sharp cheddar cheese
- 1 brioche bun, split
- 1 small handful fresh baby spinach
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 teaspoon mild mustard
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Melt half the butter in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the spinach and sauté for about 30 seconds, just until wilted. Remove and set aside.
- Whisk the eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper. Add the remaining butter to the skillet, pour in the eggs, and gently scramble them over low heat until just creamy do not overcook.
- When the eggs are almost set, place the cheddar slices on top, cover the skillet for 30 seconds to melt the cheese.
- Meanwhile, lightly toast the brioche bun. Spread a thin layer of mild mustard on the cut sides.
- Layer the cheesy eggs on the bottom half of the bun, top with wilted spinach, and close with the top half. Serve immediately.
- For extra crunch, sprinkle crispy fried onions or veggie chips on top of the eggs before closing the sandwich.
Notes
For extra flavor, add caramelized onions or a slice of tomato.
