: : The recipe you provide requires approximately 3 hours of preparation time. Not exactly food you can take with you in a hurry. What you might be thinking of is a "Funeral Omelet" - Break eggs into a bowl. Pour into buttered skillet. turn once in pan, then turn out. garnish with edible flowers. 10 minutes later you're at the wake.
