Baked eggs with feta and tomatoes
I popped out this morning only to return to a kitchen taken over by my kids preparing Sunday brunch - on the menu was cinnamon French toast with yogurt, berries and maple syrup followed by baked eggs with feta and tomatoes. What a feast and a lovely relaxing way to start a Sunday. It was completely impromptu and simply delicious. I look forward to a repeat performance is all I can say.
Serves 4
2tbsp olive oil
1 garlic glove, halved
8 tomatoes
1 small red onion, very finely sliced
a few fresh oregano leaves or 1/2 tsp dried oregano
8 eggs
200g feta cheese crumbled
salt and black pepper
Method
- Preheat the oven to 180C/fan 160/ Gas 4
- Brush the inside of a baking dish with the olive oil, then rub the cut garlic clove over it.
- Slice the tomatoes thinly, then gently push out the seeds. Put the tomatoes and onion in a colander and sprinkle them with salt. Leave to stand for 15-20 mins, then arrange over the base of the baking dish.
- Season with plenty of salt and pepper, then sprinkle over the oregano.
- Crack the eggs one at a time into a ramekin and pour each one over the tomatoes until they are almost covered. Sprinkle over the feta.
- Bake in the over for about 15 mins until the whites have set and the yokes are still runny. Serve immediately.
