Fried Bologna Egg Cups Food

BOLOGNA CUPS WITH MASHED POTATOES

Steps:

• Cook mashed potatoes and set aside.
• Place a medium skillet over medium-high heat.
• Fry each piece of bologna by placing into skillet and cooking one side until desired doneness and then flipping and cooking the other side. *Important* Do NOT cut the bologna so that it will lie flat. You want the bologna to create a "bowl" as it cooks.
• Once bologna is cooked, remove from skillet, blot excess grease off with paper towel and place onto a serving plate.
• Spoon a servings worth of mashed potatoes into each bologna bowl and top with a slice of Velveta cheese.
• You may microwave the bologna / mashed potatoe cups just long enough to reheat the potatoes and to melt the cheese.

EGGS IN BOLOGNA CUPS

Steps:

• Fry the bologna in a skillet until the center puffs up, about 1 minute (Mom always called them bologna hats or sombreros).
• The microwave works also, but keep an eye on them so you don't end up with bologna jerky.
• Insert the bologna cups into the cups of a lightly greased muffin tin.
• Break one (1) egg into each bologna cup and top each egg with 1 teaspoon of milk.
• Sprinkle with salt, pepper and paprika.
• Bake at 375°F about 15 to 20 minutes or until the eggs are set.

FRIED BOLOGNA SANDWICH

Steps:

• Spread one slice of bread with mayonnaise and the other slice with yellow mustard.
• Heat a medium skillet or griddle pan over medium-high heat. Make a 1-inch X in the center of each piece of bologna to keep it from curling up in the skillet. Wipe the skillet with a stick of butter until lightly greased. Add the bologna and fry a couple of minutes on each side until browned. Stack up the bologna in the skillet and top with the cheese. Cover with a large inverted bowl and heat until melted.
• Transfer the bologna to one of the slices of bread. Top with the chow chow, potato chips and lettuce. Top with the other slice of bread and give it a little push to crush the potato chips down a bit. Enjoy immediately.

FRIED BOLOGNA EGG CUPS

Steps:

• Snip the edges of the bologna about 1/4 inch in and about 1/2 inch apart all around the each slice. I keep a pair of scissors in the kitchen specifically for this kind of thing. I also use them to cut up bacon, etc.
• Fry each slice on both sides in butter. You may have to hold the slices flat with the spatula to keep them from curling up too soon.
• When the second side is done, flip it over and let it curl up into a cup form.
• Place on plate and put in low temp oven to keep warm.
• Fry eggs to desired doneness. We liked ours over but with the yolk still soft.
• When ready put one fried egg in each bologna "cup" and top with a slice of cheese.
• Place under broiler ONLY until the cheese begins to melt. You don't want to over cook the eggs.
• SERVING SUGGESTION:.
• These could be served on toasted, buttered English muffin halves, scones, crumpets, or just plain toast, with a side of home fries and some fruit.
• NOTE:.
• You could use any type of cheese, including things like feta or shredded cheeses.

BOLOGNA CUPS

Steps:

• In a large skillet (I prefer my cast-iron), melt a little butter and fry the bologna with the rind on (the red thing around the outside of the slice), only on one side. You'll notice it will start to "cup up".
• While the bologna is frying, make your instant potatoes according to the directions and your taste. You will want them to be creamy, but stiff so that they won't run off the bologna.
• When the bologna has "cupped" and is fried enough to your satisfaction, set aside on a large plate. Carefully remove the "rind" without tearing up the bologna. It will relax a bit but that's okay. Put a large scoop of potatoes on top of each bologna "cup", add onions and/or chives (if you don't like onions, it eats just as well without), and top with a slice of American cheese or a generous helping of shredded cheddar cheese.
• Pop in the microwave long enough to slightly melt the cheese, or you can even put in the oven to brown the cheese. Then eat!

GRILLED FRIED EGG, BOLOGNA AND CHEESE SANDWICH

Steps:

• Prep:.
• Slit the bologna in 4 places alond the side to 1/2 to middle (like a pinwheel) to prevent it from curling when fried.
• Mayo one side of 2 slices of bread (I prefer to grill with mayo -- browns better than butter -- a trick I learned from a diner).
• Add small pat of butter to grease a non-stick frying pan on medium. Add the bologna. Fry to your liking turning frequently as not to burn. Transfer to one piece of your bread on the un-mayo side.
• Fry an egg. You will have plenty of grease to fry it inches Poke yolk. Flip. Add a slice of cheese to cooked side. Fry it through. Transfer to on top of bologna.
• Put other slice of bread over. Mayo side out. Transfer to fry pan. Grill it like you would a grilled cheese sandwich. I put Frank's Red Hot cayanne pepper sauce as a condiment. (milder than Tabasco) -- use whatever condiment you want or leave it plain! Super YUMMY!

FRIED EGG AND BOLOGNA SANDWICH

Steps:

• Melt a pat of butter in a fry pan and fry the bologna till golden.
• Remove the bologna and fry the egg (break the yolk, if you wish) in the same pan.
• Slice open the kaiser roll and place the cooked bologna slice on the roll.
• When you have flipped the egg and its near done, place the slice of cheese on top till melted. Remove and place on top of bologna and top with the other half of bun. Enjoy!
