Quail eggs at your service -- with miraculous benefits to your health

Ingredients

• raw quail eggs -- any number between one and three/four/five

• ! cup of warm milk
• Optional : spices like cinnamon. Whisky or brandy -- provided its not against one's principles -- can be added with limitation

Instructions

Beat raw eggs with a fork or with an electric egg beater.
Keep the shells for grinding and using it later/another occasion for the calcium contained.
Beat into the mix the preferred sweet stuff -- sugar or honey.
Warm up the milk -- carefully as not to get it too hot: hot milk coagulates the egg. Ideal temperature of milk is a bit above the body temperature.

This is a simple quail recipe -- anyone can easily make it. Fried quail eggs are delicious. One regular chicken egg is the equivalent of three - four quail eggs. A healthy and satisfying portion for an adult are 12 quail eggs at one meal -- replacing the 3 regular eggs that one would have served for one person

Fried quail eggs

Ingredients

• 24 fresh quail eggs
• salt
• pepper -- to taste
• 2 spoons of olive/preferred cooking oil
• other spices -- to taste

Instructions

Break all quail eggs into a glass/bowl/container
Preheat little olive oil/ preferred cooking oil in a pan.
When oil hot, pour the eggs from container into the pan.
Salt and pepper to taste.
Place lid over the pan for one minute. This is to contain the steam -- cook the fine layer of egg white over the yolk and keep it moist.

Remove lid after one minute and check the yolks. If you like yolks to be hard, leave the lid on again for another minute. Remove eggs from pan onto a plate when done according to personal taste,(well or medium). This is my favorite quail recipe.

In the pic there is a regular egg next to the quail equivalent of two more regular eggs -- for reference.

This is a more time consuming dish -- I mostly make it because on this occasion I can save the apple cider vinegar in which I soak the boiled eggs -- for easy peeling.
However, every time I take my time to peel so many little eggs and serve this plate with the little stuffed quail eggs, I get a big round of applauses from those who eat them -- usually guests at home or at some community events. That makes any effort in preparing this quail recipe to be worth of the time used up.

This quail recipe is using the birds rather than their eggs. The quail meat is light and tasty -- the meaty parts are the breasts. The legs are a tasty nice bit that must be enjoyed while eaten with hands. The cooking itself is extremely simple -- the ingredients for the marinade are easily available . The honey in the recipe could be replaced with a tsp of sugar -- if honey is a problem to get.

Ingredients

• 2 quails per person
• garlic -one clove
• 200ml olive oil
• dark soy sauce 2 tbsp
• balsamic vinegar 2 tbsp
• salt
• cayenne/black pepper to taste
• tabasco sauce
• 1 glass of red dry wine
• 1 tsp honey

Instructions

This quail recipe suggests grilling the quails. There is however the option of being baked in a foil, or in a halogen oven or even broiled in a pressure cooker -- the meat will be tasty and tender, no matter the choice of preparing it.
It is important though to keep the birds in the marinade for at least four hours -- the best option is for overnight. According to all quail recipes, the quail meat needs some tenderizing before cooked.

Use a kitchen shear and cut the quails into two halves
Clean and wash inside
Dry with towel
Crush garlic
Place all the ingredients in a bowl. Multiply every qty by the number of further two birds per person invited
Place the quails into the bowl. Brush and stir the birds until all covered with the marinade
Cover bowl. Leave it in the fridge over night or at least for four hours before cooking
Preheat oven to 190 degree C
Place quails on to the racks or in a tray
Brush quails over with the marinade that is left in the bowl, several times during cooking
Grill/bake birds until brown and crispy -- it should happen in 30 minutes -- check after 20 minutes in case your oven is strong

I am serving quails with vegetables, baked in the oven but it is a free choice of what the side dish should be. Rice, noodles, steamed vegetables -- they all complement nicely the quails.
Enjoy the meal and be happy! Share the quail recipe with friends.
