Baked eggs

Eggs en cocotte with bacon and sausage meat ragu

Originally intended to be a fusion of shakshuka and eggs en cocotte, I decided in the end that I wanted meat for breakfast. Served with crusty bread, this baked meat and egg dish makes a hefty breakfast.

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.
