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 the 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.
