Very nice and easy recipe also known as "Marta's eggs" in honor of the Master of this dish ;)

Preparation time: 30 minutes
Difficulty: easy

Ingredients:
4 eggs
1 tuna can (If you don't want to eat tune, you can substitute it for some spinachs)
1 small fried tomato carton

Mayonnaise
If you prefer a home-made mayonnaise you will need:
- 1/2 Lemon
- 1 Egg
- Sunflower oil or Olive oil (the softer you have)
- Vinegar (optional)

4. Put half of the yolks in a bowl with the tuna and some fried tomato and smash it all until it becomes a mass.

5. Put the whites in a dish and in the hole add the mixture you have prepared with the yolks, tuna and tomato.

6. To prepare the mayonnaise: put in a mixer an egg, some sunflower oil, the juice of half lemon (be careful not to drop the stones in the mixer) and salt (if you want, you can add a bit of vinegar). Mix it and taste it. If it is very liquid add more oil until it gets the right texture and also depending on how it taste you can add more salt or lemon.

Wok 1

Estela and Ale taught me this recipe in Brussels. It is not typical from there, but it is really good!

Preparation time: 30 minutes
Difficulty: easy

Ingredients:

- Rice
- Mushrooms
- Courgette
- Onion
- Olive oil
- Maggi sauce: "de enige echte" (if you are in The Netherlands), Jugo Maggi (if you are in Spain) and for the rest of the countries, look for the same sauce that appears in the picture. It's name can be "Maggi juice" or "The real one" or who knows...
- Salt

Preparation:

1. Cut the onion in little pieces and in a wok (or if you don't have, in a pan) with olive oil fry it. When it is half cooked, add the courgette and bit of salt. When it is nearly ready add the mushrooms, a bit of the maggi sauce and let it cook.

2. While you are cooking the other ingredients, prepare the rice in a pot.

3. When everything is ready mix it and add as much maggi sauce as you like.

Enjoy!
