This gorgeous dish is like magic, the process is as delightful and the result!! P whipped this up for a lazy Sunday Farewell brunch for our little sister and a celebration of a wonderful relationship. We tweaked Nigella Lawson's recipe a wee bit and you can tweak this one to suit your taste-buds.
What you need:
What you need:
- Eggs; 2 for each person
- 2 tbsp of cream
- 2 tbsp of olive oil
- 1/2 cup mushrooms, finely chopped
- fresh/dry herbs of your choice
- salt and pepper to taste
- Pre- heat your oven to 200 deg C.
- Cook the mushrooms in 1tbsp of olive oil till they are soft and add the herbs you have chosen
- In a ramekin first spoon the mushrooms in, break the eggs on top of them, pour in the cream, drizzle the olive oil, sprinkle the salt and pepper and you are done!
- Set your ramekin in a dish of warm water and place it in the oven for 12 minutes when the whites of the eggs will be cooked but the yellow is still deliciously wobbly.
- Crunchy toasted bread is the perfect accompaniment but you can make it more glamorous like we did with a side of smoked bacon and a fresh corn and tomato salad. Not to forget the champagne that we popped. It was a celebration indeed, but so is the end of a Long Hard Day!!
yum yum indeed! The picture is so beautiful!! I am going to get vasanth to make this :-) (he makes all our egg dishes, coz I can be clumsy)
