About this recipe

This brioche burger with bacon and egg is more than just a recipe for me; it is a small culinary journey that is reminiscent of sunny Sunday mornings. The idea came from the desire for a hearty breakfast that is quick to prepare, but still offers something special. I love to conjure up something delicious with simple ingredients, and this burger is the perfect proof of that. The secret of this burger lies in the combination of flavors and textures. The brioche bun, with its slightly sweet note and soft consistency, forms the perfect base. It wonderfully captures the flavors of bacon, egg and cheese. The bacon, fried crispy, contributes a salty and smoky component that forms a great contrast to the sweet bun. The egg, creamy and soft, connects everything and provides a juicy texture. The processed cheese, often underestimated, brings an additional creaminess and a mild, melting taste into play. And if you like, you can add a few drops of hot sauce for a pleasant spiciness that perfectly rounds off the dish. The preparation in the Thermomix® is very easy and saves time. Whisking the eggs is done quickly, and setting in the mixing bowl is perfect. It is important to push the eggs along the bottom with the spatula while they are setting to prevent them from sticking. The temperature of 90°C is ideal for achieving a creamy but not too dry result. Melting the cheese directly on the eggs in the mixing bowl is a clever trick that saves time and ensures even distribution. However, the bacon must be fried separately in the pan, as the Thermomix® cannot achieve the desired crispness here. For a vegetarian version, the bacon can simply be omitted and replaced with fried mushrooms or halloumi. If you like it vegan, you can use a vegan brioche bun, prepare tofu scramble instead of egg and use vegan cheese. There are no limits to the imagination when it comes to spices. Instead of hot sauce, fresh herbs such as chives or parsley, or a pinch of smoked paprika powder also go well. Serve the brioche burger with bacon and egg as a hearty breakfast, brunch or quick lunch. A fresh salad, crispy potato wedges or simply a glass of orange juice go well with it. Leftovers of the eggs can be stored in the refrigerator and warmed up the next day. The brioche bun can also be prepared well and toasted shortly before serving. However, the bacon should always be freshly fried to preserve its crispness.
