So here we are in Week #40 of Steemit Sandwich Contest, , you're into the naughty forties now :)
Wow and are the sandwiches getting interesting!
But I'm still missing 's sandwich creations - for those who don't know this fabulous steemian, check out her post when she hit 100 sandwich mark.
currently is on maternity leave with a real bun in her oven :)
But back to week #40 - I just love smoked ham & eggs, and wondered how I could incorporate it into a sandwich with a difference, so good old faithful mama google came in to help me again.
We all know how to make fried eggs, boiled eggs, scrambled eggs, poached eggs and even an omelette, but how many of us have made baked eggs?
Well, I've tried baking them in an open muffin pan with all sorts of nice breakfast goodies, but the eggs were either too soft or too dry.
So how about baking an egg in a bread bun?
The ingredients required:
I managed to buy a beautiful large Sesame Seed Bun from a local bakery plus real nice Smoked Ham, Cheddar Cheese, Spring Onions & Parsley plus 2 eggs that did not know they were going to be buried and baked inside a bread bun :)
I cut a lid off the top of the bun, then hollowed the bun out.
Lined the bun with beautiful shaved Smoked Ham and chopped Spring Onions.
This was a large Bun so I needed to use 2 Eggs to fill it, added some finely diced Parsley and seasoned it with my favourite seasoning.
A generous amount of grated Cheese on top plus extra Parsley.
All this was covered with the bun lid.
Wrap in heavy duty foil and baked in 170 C fan oven for about 30 minutes. (Check from about 20 min if using only one egg.)
Beautifully baked Egg & Ham bun just in time for Brunch.
Cut into quarters, egg slightly set as I like it, hubby's was cooked a shorter time for a runny egg.
The whole process sped up for all you busy steemians!
