Irish Baked Eggs image

This recipe comes from "The Ballykissangel Cookbook". Ballykissangel being the fictional Irish village of the popular BBC TV drama series of the same name, that was aired a few years ago. This is a simple vegetarian supper dish that can be varied endlessly and easily adapted to suit your personal tastes. Ingredients are per person so this can be made for just one person or sized up to feed the family (If you're making for more than one and are not cooking this in individual portions you'll probably find that you don't need as much milk per person; you'll also find you need to adjust cooking times upwards). We found this to be a meal in itself so I simply serve it with some crusty bread.

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 celery rib
1 medium potato, peeled
1 small carrot, peeled
2 button mushrooms
1 garlic clove, peeled and sliced
1 spring onion, chopped (scallion)
1/2 ounce butter
1 tomatoes, sliced
1 teaspoon cornflour (cornstarch)
5 fluid ounces milk
salt and pepper
2 eggs
grated cheese, to finish

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 160 C, 325 F, gas mark 3.

  • Bring to the boil , simmer for 5 minutes then drain; place vegetables into an ovenproof soup bowl.
  • Slice the mushrooms and fry them in the butter until softened with the spring onion and garlic; layer over vegetables in the bowl then place the tomato slices on top of that.

  • Place the soup bowl in the oven and bake for 15 minutes or until the mixture starts to bubble; remove from the oven and with the back of a spoon press down onto the mixture to make one dent for each egg; crack the eggs into the dents.

I'm not a fan of runny eggs, so I cooked them for a few minutes longer than the recipe called for. They were perfect!

I followed the recipe exactly and the eggs turned out runny. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

The eggs were a bit overcooked for my liking, but the flavors were good. I'll try cooking them for a shorter amount of time next time.

These baked eggs were a bit bland for my taste. I think I would have liked them better with some more seasoning.

These baked eggs were so easy to make and turned out great! I used sharp cheddar cheese and cooked the bacon until it was nice and crispy. Served them with some fresh fruit and toast, and it was a perfect breakfast.
