Caramelised Onions Baked Eggs with Anchovy Soldiers
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. For baked eggs: For anchovy soldiers:2 eggs 2 large onions - diced Salt 2 tbs passata 2 tbs milk Freshly ground black pepper 50g (about 8 slices) anchovies in oil - finely chopped 50g unsalted butter - softened at room temperature 4 slices bread Directions: For baked eggs: Heat up a little bit of oil in a pan.Add onions and a dash of salt. Cook on low heat until softened and browned. Pre-heat the oven to 180°C. Place caramelised onions in 2 greased ramekins. Spoon passata on onions (1 tbs each ramekin). Crack 1 egg into each ramekin. Pour milk on eggs (1 tbs each ramekin). Bake at pre-heated oven for about 10-15 mins. The eggs should be slightly wobbly. Sprinkle some freshly ground black pepper and serve with anchovy soldiers. For anchovy soldiers: Mix together butter and anchovies (just the fish, not the oil). Toast bread slices.Spread anovy butter on bread. Cut bread into equal slices. Do they look like soldiers standing in line? Serve with baked eggs. related searches : Caramelised
