Caramelised Onions Baked Eggs with Anchovy Soldiers


Posted the05/01/2010 By Pig Pig's Corner (Visit website)



This was what my sister and I had for Christmas 2009 while the wild boar was hard at work. The wild boar had to leave last minute for a locum job so our Christmas dinner was postponed. It was a last minute thing, so I had to re-plan a Christmas dinner for just the 2 of us. To prepare myself for the huge Christmas dinner, I wanted something simple. I decided to make this after looking through the pantry and found a can of anchovies and a carton of 18 eggs (don't ask me why). The anchovy soldiers were quite salty on its own but sooooo good with the baked eggs. The caramelised onions added a nice sweet flavour to the dish.
