Time 30m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

3 tablespoons butter, melted
8 eggs
8 tablespoons heavy cream
Kosher salt and freshly cracked pepper
Assorted toppings: shredded Cheddar cheese and crispy chorizo (see Cook's Note); diced lox and scallions; sauteed sliced mushrooms; 1-inch pieces of steamed asparagus; crumbled feta and chopped chives

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Bring a kettle or small pot of water just to a simmer.
  • Brush the insides of 8 small ramekins with the melted butter. Crack 1 egg into each ramekin. Add 1 tablespoon of heavy cream to each ramekin and season with salt and pepper. Add any combination of toppings to the ramekins. (Or even better, let your guests add their preferred toppings.)
  • Place the ramekins in a high-sided baking dish. Pour the simmering water into the baking dish until it comes about halfway up the ramekins. Cover loosely with aluminum foil and bake until the eggs reach a custard-like consistency and the yolks are just set, 12 to 15 minutes.
  • Carefully remove the ramekins from the water bath. Let cool slightly before serving.

CRISPY PARMESAN EGGS



Crispy Parmesan Eggs image

How can you make runny-yolked fried eggs even better? Give them edges of crisp, salty Parmesan. The addition takes just a few extra minutes and adds an incredible layer to a dish that's already deeply lovable. Make sure to skip preground Parmesan here: You'll want to shred the cheese yourself on the largest holes of your grater. And use a nonstick skillet or well-seasoned cast-iron pan to fry the eggs. They may never come off a regular pan. Eat them alone, lay them over asparagus, or use them to top a sharp, lemony salad. When something's this perfect, it's hard to go wrong however you serve it.

Categories     breakfast, brunch, one pot, main course, side dish

Time 10m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 cup coarsely grated (not ground) Parmesan
4 eggs
Kosher salt and black pepper

Steps:

  • Brush 1 teaspoon olive oil into a thin layer on the bottom of a 10-inch nonstick or well-seasoned cast-iron skillet and place over medium heat. Sprinkle 1/2 cup Parmesan in an even layer covering the bottom of the pan. Cook for 2 minutes until cheese begins to melt.
  • Crack eggs onto cheese, then cover pan and cook until eggs are starting to set but are not cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes. Uncover and turn heat to medium-high to finish cooking eggs for another 1 to 2 minutes, until edges are crisp and golden brown. Make sure the cheese doesn't get too brown; if it goes past light golden, turn down heat. To serve, season eggs with salt and pepper to taste.
