Preparation time: 10 minutes
Baking time: 20-25 minutes
Total time: 30-35 minutes
Servings: 2
Ingredients
- 2 sesame seed rolls (or any other type of roll you prefer)
- 1-2 tablespoons of butter (for extra flavor)
- 2-3 tablespoons of cream cheese
- 2 slices of tenderloin (or other cold cuts like ham, salami, or even bacon)
- 2 fresh eggs
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Herbs de Provence (or other preferred herbs)
- Fresh parsley for garnish
Necessary utensils
- 2 small ceramic dishes or ramekins
- Knife to cut the rolls
- Spoon to scoop out the insides
- Knife to chop the herbs
Step by Step
1. Preparing the rolls: Start by cutting the top off the rolls. Make sure the cut is even for a nice presentation. Using a spoon, scoop out the insides of the rolls, leaving a wall about 1-2 cm thick. This will be the perfect base for your eggs.
2. Greasing the dishes: Preheat the oven to 180°C. Meanwhile, grease the ceramic dishes with a little butter. This step is essential to prevent the rolls from sticking and will add a wonderful flavor to your dish.
3. Assembling: Place each roll in the prepared dish. Inside each roll, add a small piece of butter and a layer of cream cheese. This will add creaminess and make the egg even tastier.
4. Adding the ingredients: Place a slice of tenderloin in each roll. You can experiment with various types of cold cuts or even sautéed vegetables, depending on your preferences.
5. The eggs: Crack one egg into each roll, being careful not to break the yolk. Season with salt, pepper, and herbs de Provence. These herbs add a Mediterranean fragrance that will transform breakfast into a unique culinary experience.
6. Baking: Place the dishes in the oven and let them bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the eggs are well done, but the yolk is still a bit soft, if you like it that way. Check periodically to ensure they don't overcook.
7. Serving: Once ready, take the rolls out of the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley for an extra splash of color and flavor.
Chef's tip
A great idea is to add some slices of tomato or avocado on top of the egg before putting them in the oven. This will not only add a note of freshness but will also make the dish a nutritionally balanced breakfast.
