Scrambled and tossed with melted cheddar, fried till it's crisp and gooey in equal measure, or poached to perfection, if you offer me a dish with eggs in it, rest assured I'm going to gobble it up. Ever since I was allowed to step foot in the kitchen for purposes other than tasting the food my mum just made, I have been a fan of eggs. First off, how versatile are they? You can have eggs for breakfast, lunch or dinner, and nobody will bat an eye. Secondly, I think eggs really don't get the credit that they deserve. It's a staple that will never let you down, and whatever recipe it gets added to, is only going to become better with its presence.

Super-quick to make, very hard to get wrong, and quick to transform a dish from garbage to gourmet, if there's one thing in your kitchen that deserves to be celebrated, it's eggs. And I can't think of a better way to honour this magic item, than moving away from the one cliched dish it most often finds itself in. Omelettes. So putting our love for eggs to best use, we shortlisted 10 unique dishes you can whip up with a couple of eggs instead of the old-fashioned omelette. Are you eggcited, yet? I'm sorry.

1. Frittata

One of the easiest and yummiest egg dishes you can learn to make, the Italian recipe of Frittata will quickly become your go-to breakfast option. You can add or remove ingredients and vegetables based on the nutrients you need. We love this Youtube video recipe tutorial by Sanjeev Kapoor Khazana that makes use of spinach to enrich the classic recipe. Some cheese, mushrooms and capsicum are added into the mix, and you've got yourself a delicious meal to start the day with.
