Easter Sunday Brunch - Creamy Baked Eggs w/ Truffle Oil


Hey Guys,


What a beautiful start to Easter Sunday - mine & my best friend's boy, got up early this morning to go fishing & try their luck with the crab nets! I got up later to get everything ready for our Easter Sunday Brunch. Perth has put on the most beautiful weather! It is sunny with a slight coastal breeze... I LOVE April weather!

So while Chris is cleaning the little boat out, I thought I'd share my delicious
Creamy Egg & Truffle Oil recipe....

Left the eggs in for a few minutes too long, so didn't come out as runny as I wanted :(
Creamy Egg's & Truffle Oil

Ingrediants

 Fresh Organic/Free-range Eggs (2 per person)
Full Fat Cream
Good Quality Sea Salt
Truffle Infused Olive Oil
Toasted Turkish Bread (drizzle with EVOO & bake w/eggs)
Asparagus Spears (blanched)



Directions

1. Pre-heat oven on 200 Deg. Celcius
2. Crack 2 eggs into a ramekin (souffle dish) & sprinkle Salt
4. Pour desired amount of cream on top
5. Drizzle desired amount of truffle oil through cream
6. Place ramekin's into a baking dish (lasagne tray is suitable)
7. Pour boiling water into dish so that it comes 1/2 way up the ramekin edge
8. Place dish in oven and bake 3-4 mins per serve (4 serves = 12 mins)
9. Dip crisp Turkish Bread or Asparagus Spears into creamy egg & ENJOY!

This is such an indulgent but super easy Brunch idea...
Serve along side some warm croissants & fresh seasonal fruit & of course, orange juice & champagne!



The boys caught a couple of crabs & some fish, so they cooked them up too!
I also wanted to say Thank-You to my beautiful friend Hannah for my birthday pressie - she knows me too well (beige, white & blue - you can't go wrong!) xx


About to enjoy a selection of cheeses w/ Hubby now in the glorious sun.
HAPPY EASTER xxx

    1. Hi Annette! It is so earthy and gives dishes a lot more depth. I'll have to try w/ mashed potatoes! Yum :) Also, drizzle on pasta tossed with mushrooms sauteed in butter & EVOO that have then been simmered in cream, sprinkle some chives lots of salt, cracked pepper & parmesan & enjoy. xx
