NOTE: my challenge is to find the ideal temperature to cook the eggs so that they are soft, yet cooked.
1 cup + 1 Tbsp crème fraîche
1/2 tsp salt
fresh ground pepper
1 tsp packed fresh herb, minced (dill is excellent and classic, thyme or basil is good)
4 eggs
- Lightly butter 4 ramekins.
- Fill half-way with water an oven-proof dish such as a lasagna dish and put in the oven. Pre-heat the oven to 375F.
- Mix together the crème fraîche, salt, pepper and fresh herb.
- Divide the creamy mix in half and divide the first half evenly between the four ramekins. Crack an egg into each ramekin so that it rests on top of the cream.
- Pop each ramekin into the hot water dish in the oven. They should be evenly spaced and not touching each other.
- Bake for about 11 minutes.
- Take out of the oven and immediately remove from the hot water bath or the eggs will continue to cook.
- Serve with toast cut into strips.
