How to Make

  • Step 1: Preheat your oven ~ fan 180C/ conventional 200C/gas 6.

  • Step 2: Cut the tomatoes into quarters, and spread them over a fairly shallow 1.5 litre ovenproof dish.

  • Step 3: Place so as cut side is showing on the tomato's and sprinkle with the sugar.

  • Step 4: NOTE: I had some large cherry tomato's and used these instead (halved) although it did reduce the cooking time to approx. 30 minutes.

  • Step 5: Sprinkle tomato's with the sliced garlic and drizzle with the olive and balsamic. Season with salt and pepper ~ and stir to combine.

  • Step 6: Place the dish into the oven and bake for 40 minutes until the tomatoes have softened and are tinge of brown to them. At this stage add eggs (as follows).

  • Step 7: Make four gaps among the tomatoes, break an egg into each gap and cover the dish with a sheet of foil. Return dish to the oven for 5-10 minutes (due to variance in ovens this could take a few minutes longer to get the egg to your liking.)

  • Step 8: Remove from oven ~ remove the foil ~ and sprinkle on chopped chives & parmesan.

  • Step 9: Serve on top of hot thick toasted bread.
