Proper old-school: tomato and egg salad for a sandwich

That moment when you used to get out of school early on a Wednesday afternoon, and your mum would take you to the bakery to pick up some fresh rolls, and you'd just sit there enjoying every bite while the rest of the day stretched out ahead of you. I still find myself longing for those times sometimes — does that sound familiar? To take myself back there in spirit, I make my favourite sandwich fillings every now and then. Just for old time's sake 😉 And because it's still absolutely delicious.

I'm not entirely sure, but I think this 'tomato-egg mush' — as we rather unglamorously used to call it — is an old family recipe. Well, recipe is a stretch, it's hardly rocket science. But it really is incredibly tasty! And so quick to make, and easy when you don't have much in the house but still want something a little more special than a plain cheese sandwich. My tip: get your bread from Vlaamsch Broodhuys — they do seriously amazing bread.
