Eggs en cocotte with Korean ham

Eggs en cocotte with Korean ham
Eggs en cocotte is a French dish of baked egg. You smear the inside of ramekins with oil (or softened butter which I prefer), crack an egg or eggs directly into each ramekin, and add whatever delicious ingredients you fancy — herbs, cheese, cream… Then, you bake the eggs in a water bath until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny.
Cook time: 12 minutes minutes
