This divine brunch sandwich is a heavenly and transcendent way to start your day. Slow-cooked onions infused with aromatic spices replace bacon in this recipe, combined with fluffy eggs, creamy brie cheese, and a mouthwatering harissa aioli, sandwiched between freshly-baked sourdough bread.

Ingredients:

Yield: 4 servings
1 red onion, sliced into rings
1 tsp smoked paprika
1 tsp cumin
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tbsp olive oil
Salt and black pepper, to taste
2 tbsp harissa aioli
1 tbsp olive oil
A handful of chopped herbs, such as basil, thyme, or rosemary
4 large eggs
1 tbsp unsalted butter
Salt and black pepper, to taste
4 slices of brie cheese
4 slices of freshly-baked sourdough bread, toasted

Instructions:

Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
Step 2
In a mixing bowl, combine the sliced red onion rings, smoked paprika, cumin, garlic powder, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Toss until the onion is well coated. Place on a baking sheet and roast in the preheated oven for about 30-35 minutes, until the onion is soft, golden, and fragrant. Set aside.
Step 3
In another bowl, mix together the harissa aioli, olive oil, and chopped herbs. Set aside.
Step 4
Melt the butter over medium heat in a non-stick pan. In a separate bowl, lightly whisk the eggs until well beaten. Pour the eggs into the melted butter, and season with salt and black pepper. Cook, stirring gently, until the eggs are just set and creamy. Remove from heat.
Step 5
Slice the freshly-baked sourdough bread in half. Spread the harissa aioli on the bottom half of each bread slice. Add a slice of creamy brie cheese on top of the aioli, followed by a generous amount of roasted onion rings. Top with the scrambled eggs, and finally, the top half of the bread.
Step 6
Serve hot, with a side of fresh fruit and a cup of divine coffee. This is not just a brunch sandwich, but a sacred offering to the gods of good taste and abundance.
