Here I would like to introduce you to the preparation of the vegetarian Strammen Max. A simple snack that can also bridge a lunch break.

I don’t know why Max is so „stramm“ = tight – maybe it’s the quick preparation. In any case, the sandwich topped with a fried egg is delicious and therefore universally popular.

So let me show you my vegetarian preparation. I wish you good luck and bon appétit!

1. Hard choice when it comes to ingredients

My Strammer Max is vegetarian today. For this meat-free snack you need a vegetable topping – pre-cooked, blanched or fried. Just the way you like it. I recommend a creamy spread such as butter or cream cheese or hummus or avocado cream on your slice of bread…

There is only one “must” with Strammer Max: the fried egg as a topping!

Says snackpert Thomas Sixt

My cooking guru suggestion for you is:

Toast with fried egg
Toast with fried egg and green asparagus – ideal for in between.

1.2 Vegetables

I cooked my asparagus in the pan and then roasted it. For example, courgettes or aubergine or peppers or mushrooms can be fried directly. Other vegetables such as asparagus or green beans or broccoli should be cooked briefly and then sautéed in the pan.

You can try it with:

Green asparagus from the pan
Cook the asparagus once briefly in the pan before frying. It should be crunchy but definitely not raw!

Always use the appropriate preparation method for vegetables!

1.3 Prepare fried eggs safely

Preparing fried eggs is child’s play. You will find a video below. Choose your personal cooking level for the eggs. Opinions often differ on this – Berta doesn’t care 🙂

I like to use organic eggs. I like to buy these – on occasion – from the farmer’s egg cupboard in the countryside. It doesn’t get any better than that!

Here you can get fresh eggs!

Eggs from the countryside come in a wide variety of shapes and colours. As individual as the animals are, so are the eggs. The egg varieties are a sign of quality and show the natural husbandry!

Peeling tomatoes for fine diced tomatoes is easy. Tomato is a great addition here!
