eatpress

We love breakfast here at eatpress, surely everyone does. It is so good to wake up and feast- I wish I could do it every morning. This recipe is from special guest Kris (the Windsor chef), he is really quite accomplished in the kitchen, but this recipe is good for anyone- it’s easy and fast and that’s what eatpress is all about.

Serves 4

• 2 sheets phyllo pastry
• 4 eggs
• 100 g ham
• cheese of your choice! (havarti was Kris’)
• Butter, melted for brushing the pastry

Preheat the oven to 200ºC (400ºF)

Cut the phyllo into about 5 x 5 in squares, brush melted butter in between a couple sheets of the pastry and pop a few sheets into (4) little ceramic bowls (we used cappuccino mugs), letting the pastry overhang the bowl. Then line with some sliced ham, crack a whole egg into it and top with cheese. Fold the extra phillo over the top and bake until golden brown and the egg is cooked, about 5-10 minutes. PRESTO!!! cheesy, hammy, eggy GOODNESS!! Thanks Kris!

(Why not try adding spinach, smoked salmon, mushrooms, bacon or chopped sausage? Any breakfast favorite ingredients go good in pastry!)
