Spinach and feta baked eggs
We affectionately call baked eggs ‘lazy eggs’ because they are so, so simple to make, but that name really does not justify how delicious they are. Just set egg whites (with a wobble) and an irresistible runny yolk without any fuss. We’ve thrown in some peppery spinach and salty feta to give these a little extra. Top tip – a good ramekin is a kitchen essential; we use our artisan ramekins from the Clarence Boutique.
Method
Pre-heat the oven to 200ºC/180ºC (fan.)
Take each of your ramekins and grease the insides with a little butter, then place them onto a baking tray.
Mix the cream and milk into a jug and season well with salt and pepper. Add the chopped spinach and stir through. Pour the mixture into the ramekins, making sure they are evenly distributed.
Carefully crack a Burford Brown egg into each ramekin. Then crumble over the feta onto each ramekin and sprinkle with some of the dill sprigs. Give each ramekin a final grind of cracked black pepper over the top and then place into the pre-heated oven.
Bake the eggs for 10-12 minutes until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny (if you would prefer a firmer set egg then bake for 15 minutes). Remove from the oven and then serve with toasted sourdough for dunking.
