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.

TOMATO BAKED EGGS



Tomato Baked Eggs image

Provided by Michael Symon : Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 shallot, minced
1 clove garlic, minced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
One 28-ounce can diced San Marzano tomatoes with juices
1/4 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves
8 large eggs
1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese

Steps:

  • Put a large Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the olive oil, shallot, garlic, and a pinch of salt and cook for 1 minute. Add the tomatoes with juices and allow the sauce to come up to a simmer. Season with salt and pepper and then stir in the parsley.
  • Carefully crack the eggs into the sauce so as not to pop the yolks, leaving a little space between each egg. Top with the feta, reduce the heat to medium-low, cover, and cook until the whites are set and the yolks are still runny, about 2 minutes.
  • Scoop out the eggs and transfer to plates. Top with sauce and serve.

Tips:

  • Select ripe and firm tomatoes: Choose tomatoes that are free from blemishes and bruises, with a vibrant red color. Avoid tomatoes that are too soft or have green shoulders.
  • Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs like basil, oregano, and thyme add a burst of flavor to the dish. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but reduce the amount you use by half.
  • Don't overcrowd the baking dish: Make sure to leave some space between the tomatoes so that they can cook evenly. If you overcrowd the baking dish, the tomatoes will steam instead of roast.
  • Bake the eggs until the whites are just set: The eggs should be cooked through, but still have a slightly runny yolk. Overcooked eggs will be tough and rubbery.
  • Serve immediately: Baked eggs in tomatoes is best served hot out of the oven. Garnish with additional fresh herbs and a drizzle of olive oil before serving.
