Who doesn't sometimes crave a warm and comforting meal for breakfast?

Whether you choose to serve it alongside a glass of buttermilk or a fresh salad, you'll find it's a savory combination that will delight your taste buds.

Necessary ingredients
- 1 fresh egg (ideally from free-range chickens)
- 1 tablespoon of whole wheat flour (you can also use white flour, but whole wheat adds extra flavor)
- 1 teaspoon of olive oil (for a more intense flavor, you can experiment with nut oil)
- a pinch of baking powder
- a pinch of salt
- 2 slices of smoked pork tenderloin (make sure they are of good quality for an authentic taste)
- 50 g of cheese (I recommend Delaco cheese, but you can choose any other type you prefer)
- 1 red bell pepper for garnish (besides the beauty of the color, it adds a touch of freshness)
- 1 teaspoon of oil for greasing the pan

Preparing the pudding

1. Preparing the ingredients
Start by gathering all the necessary ingredients. Make sure the egg is fresh and, if possible, from a trusted source. The pork tenderloin should be sliced thinly, and the grated cheese will melt beautifully in the oven.

2. Mixing the composition
In a medium bowl, crack the egg and lightly beat it with a fork. Then add the whole wheat flour, olive oil, baking powder, and salt. Mix well until you achieve a smooth composition. In the end, you should have a light, fluid batter. If you want a fluffier texture, you can add a little sparkling water.

3. Preparing the pan
Grease a ceramic dish with oil, ensuring it is well covered so the pudding does not stick. Ceramic dishes retain heat and help with even baking.

4. Assembling the pudding
Pour the egg mixture into the prepared dish. Place the slices of smoked pork tenderloin on top, distributing them evenly. Sprinkle the grated cheese over the pork so that it melts and combines with the flavors.

5. Decorating
Cut the red bell pepper into thin slices or rounds and artistically arrange them on top of the pudding for a colorful and appetizing appearance.

6. Baking
Preheat the oven to 170 degrees Celsius. Once the oven is ready, place the dish with the pudding inside and let it bake for 20 minutes. You will know it is done when the surface is golden and fluffy.

Serving
After the pudding is baked, let it cool slightly before slicing. Serve it warm, alongside a glass of buttermilk or a fresh tomato and onion salad. A garnish of onion and tomato slices will add a touch of freshness and a pleasant contrast to the rich flavors of the smoked pork and cheese.

Tips and variations
- Ingredient variations: You can experiment with different types of cheese, such as feta or mozzarella. Additionally, adding herbs like dill or parsley can completely transform the dish's flavor.
- Nutritional improvements: If you want a healthier version, you can replace white flour with whole grain or oat flour. You can also add vegetables like grated zucchini or spinach to increase fiber and vitamin intake.
- Frequently asked questions:
- Can I use other types of meat? Yes, this recipe is versatile, and you can also use chicken, turkey, or even vegetables for a vegetarian option.
- Can it be prepared in advance? Although it is delicious freshly baked, you can prepare the mixture a few hours in advance and keep it in the refrigerator.
