Pan-Fried Eggs with Pumpkin and Mushrooms
Last night, I didn’t feel like cooking. I thought: “I’ll just make two eggs and that’s it,” but I also had a piece of pumpkin and some champignon mushrooms in the fridge. So, instead of the usual quick dish, this colorful and fragrant skillet was born, perfect for autumn!
A simple, genuine dish full of flavor: pan-fried eggs with pumpkin and mushrooms are prepared in a few minutes and bring all the scent of the season to the table. Ideal for a quick dinner or a rustic lunch, with few ingredients but lots of flavor.
Serve it with two slices of bread, preferably toasted — this way you can soak up the yolk and pumpkin sauce to the last drop!
