I got the leeks how I wanted them (nice and soft with a hint of golden brown just starting on the edges) and I pushed them to the side, and dropped a cracked egg into the bare space in the middle of the pan.

I think, if I had wanted a top-cooked egg yolk, I could have piled the hot leeks back on top, so that their heat was cooking the yolk from the top down.

Must confess I really enjoyed it. Felt like doing it again this morning, but not enough time. :(
Thank you for the idea another meal for my menu. :)

I don't know whether any one would be interested but I've started to write about everything I eat on a Wednesday (random I know) and what my blood sugars are here: http://paleowithmrsp.com/what-i-ate-wednesday/

But today I have had so far:
Breakfast: 2 boiled eggs, 1/2 an avocado, roasted baby tomatoes and wok'd kale with some tahini
Lunch: coconut flat bread sandwich with chicken, mayonnaise and lettuce
Snack: Energy ball (made of nut butter, seeds, goji berries and cacao)

Unkind people, failure to take personal responsibility.
Just finished my 36 hour fast, which has tipped over to 42 hours - feel remarkably good and just about to have a big cooked breakfast with my wife, fried in butter, but of course, no carbs. :)
