BAKED EGG WITH PROSCIUTTO AND TOMATO



Baked Egg With Prosciutto and Tomato image

It can be challenging to give eggs enough of an elegant twist to serve them to company, especially when the company arrives en masse, as tends to happen during the holidays. Enter the baked egg, at 15 minutes or so perhaps the slowest common cooking method (yes, I know, you can cook eggs for five hours if you choose to do so). But this is in a way the easiest method for cooking eggs in quantity.

Time 15m

Yield 1 serving

Number Of Ingredients 5

Butter or oil as needed
1 slice tomato
1 small slice prosciutto
1 egg
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 375 degrees. Smear a bit of butter or oil in ramekin; line with tomato and prosciutto. Break egg into ramekin, then put on a baking sheet.
  • Bake 10 to 15 minutes, or until egg is set and white has solidified. Because the cup retains heat, egg will continue to cook after you remove it from the oven, so it is best to undercook it slightly. Precise time, in a good oven on a middle rack, is 12 minutes. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and serve.

EGGS BAKED IN TOMATOES WITH PROSCIUTTO AND BASIL PUREE



EGGS BAKED IN TOMATOES WITH PROSCIUTTO AND BASIL PUREE image

Yield 2 Servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 large tomatoes
A handful of basil
Extra virgin olive oil
Salt and Freshly ground pepper
2 slices of prosciutto
2 eggs, at room temperature

Steps:

  • Preheat your oven to 350F. Cut the top of the tomatoes with a sharp knife and gently scoop out the the seeds and juices with a spoon. Lay them upside down on a couple sheet of paper towels to soak up extra moistness. In the meantime, using a mortar and pestle, smash the basil until it forms a paste. Add a pinch of salt, and drizzle a little olive oil to loosen the basil. Add some black pepper. Check that the tomatoes are dry inside, and dab the inside with an extra paper towel. Wrap a slice of prosciutto around the tomato, and, using a toothpick, seal both ends so they fit snugly around the tomato. Smear some of the basil paste inside the tomato. Drizzle a little olive oil in a cast iron and lay the tomatoes in the pan. Cook for 15 minutes. Gently add the egg inside of each tomato and cook for another 8-10 minutes or until the egg is cooked to your liking. Remove the toothpicks and add a little salt and black pepper.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe tomatoes: Use ripe, firm tomatoes for the best flavor and texture.
  • Use good quality prosciutto: Prosciutto adds a salty, savory flavor to the dish, so be sure to use good quality prosciutto.
  • Don't overcook the eggs: The eggs should be cooked until the whites are just set and the yolks are still runny.
  • Serve immediately: This dish is best served immediately, while the eggs are still hot and the basil puree is fresh.

Conclusion:

Eggs baked in tomatoes with prosciutto and basil puree is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a brunch or lunch. The combination of the sweet tomatoes, the salty prosciutto, and the creamy eggs is simply irresistible. Serve this dish with a side of crusty bread or toast to soak up all the delicious juices.
