you know how an army marches on its stomach? the British army marches on egg banjos. I believe there is even a NATO stock number these days.

If you had an egg mandolin as well (see pic), you could play egg duets! (It's just one of many ways to get egg duo-cated)

I have been unable to eat an egg banjo since I witnessed the Chogi Wallah in Evdhimou Camp, Cyprus scratching his head with the same fork he was using to turn the egg

The egg banjos served in a 432 always came with a greasy hand print on the bread, similarly all hot beverages came with an iridescent sheen.
I made it my business to never to supervise any cooking, what the eye doesn't.....

Excellent Dylan
Egg banjo indeed. I am official EB maker for my two girls (now grown up) who love them as much as when served up by my old WWII veteran dad to me as a boy those surprisingly long years ago- terminology derived from him of course. (Same explanation as your correspondent)! Happy memories re both generations!

If you had a square pan the fried egg would fit the slices of bread.
I don't like fried eggs so I am looking for a square egg poacher.

I wonder ifanything similar is available in the UK
Could have been worse... could have put brown sauce on it!

That's a new one for me, a most excellent description! I can confirm that I have played an egg banjo on more than one occasion. I rarely learn from my mistakes.

A WO Royal Marines told me exactly the same story a few months ago. Made me laugh then because it makes such perfect sense. The RN and RM also eat egg banjos so they are not the preserve of percy.

I would like to apologise
I do apologise for using picallili - which is obviously used in the less well known egg mandolin
I have also tried lime pickle which is the egg citar
The authentic egg banjo has to have tomato sause and lots of butter so that the dribbling goo is most likely to stick to the uniform.
By the way.... the little pan is wonderful for the solo sailor

Just add bacon grill and heady whif of parafin
What the hell was in bacon grill? I'm fairly sure it wasn't bacon

Thread of the year.
Please send Dylan a prize
This morning, chez Jonic, my five year old and seven year old were furiously playing their new found "egg banjos". With mum and dad strumming along too

Good grief Dylan!!!!
The legend is entirely credible, but your method (Picalilli)? Your method would have the chefs (sic) of Sembawang Village turning in their graves!!
Sheesh!

Isn't this a bit more eggstravagant than your usual cooking Dylan?

Oh come on, this is a cracking thread. Don't start throwing in egg puns. You'll scramble all our brains, and God knows their probably fried already.
I don't want to walk on eggshells and I know you have to break a few eggs to make an omelett, but is this really the timer the place?
If you ever have an egg banjo the yolk will really be on you.
Unless you're a bit hard boiled of course, and can't see the runny side.
Sorry. Once I hatch a plan there is no stopping me and I just come out of my shell. I think I need to be whisked away and beaten.
I'll be all white later.
