How to Make

  • Step 1: Cut the tops from the tomatoes and scoop out the seeds. Drain tomato cases well, cut side down on absorbent paper. (I sprinkle just a little pinch of sugar inside each tomato at this stage.)

  • Step 2: Place 1 teaspoon of cheese into each tomato case and sprinkle with parsley, salt and pepper.

  • Step 3: Break an egg, one at a time into a small bowl or small jug -- but be sure not to break yolk, slip one egg into each tomato case, place a knob of butter on top of each egg and bake at approx 350dg for 20 minutes or until egg has set to your preference.

  • (Note - pending on your oven temperature it may take longer as each oven differs)Remove from oven and serve sprinkled with extra parsley
