Elevate your breakfast or brunch with this delightful dish. Each serving features a perfectly baked egg nestled in a crispy, golden filo pastry cup, creating a beautiful contrast of textures. An elegant yet simple dish, sure to impress your guests and become a favourite at your table.

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 180°C/356°F/Gas Mark 4
  2. Lay one sheet down onto a clean surface and brush over the surface with olive oil. Layer another sheet on top and repeat until all the sheets are used.
  3. Cut the layered sheet into 6 squares. Line each Le Creuset Mini Cocotte with one square of filo layers. Press the filo into the mini cocotte at the bottom of a glass.
  4. Place the mini cocottes onto a baking tray. Crack one egg into each cocotte. Season with salt and black pepper. Bake for 20 minutes or a little longer if you like the egg more well done.
  5. Meanwhile, cook the bacon until crisp. Serve the eggs with fresh herbs, feta cheese, sun-dried tomatoes, asparagus or fried mushrooms.
