Antoni Porowski's Aussie breakfast for dinner sammie
"This egg sammie may look like any other egg sandwich out there, but it's got a special something that makes it extra-delicious and very Aussie: Vegemite. A thick dark-brown yeast paste that's packed with nutrients ('for vitality', the packet says, and many doctors agree it's one of the world's richest sources of B vitamins and more), the umami spread is an Aussie toast classic that also finds its way into many other dishes. Its salty, malty and slightly meat-smoky notes balance the richness of the avocado and eggs here, while seasoning the dish with a flavour that's at once familiar (the salty part) and unique (the meaty-malty part). Quick, easy, super-satisfying and healthy, this sammie is both breakfast and dinner in my home."
