Eggs and brains

Eggs 'n' brains is a breakfast meal consisting of pork brains (or those of another mammal) and scrambled eggs.^[1] It is a dish of Portuguese cuisine known as omolete de mioleira^[2] (English: brain omelette). In Austria, the dish is known as Hirn mit Ei ("calf's brain with eggs")^[3] and used to be very common, but has seen a sharp drop in popularity.

In the United States

In the American Midwest, the names are reversed and it is called "brains and eggs".^[2] It is also a breakfast dish in the cuisine of the Southern United States^[4] and has also been served as a lunch dish.^[5]
