Baked eggs with mushrooms and asparagus
Baked eggs with mushrooms and asparagus combine tender veggies sautéed briefly before baking with eggs, milk, and melted cheddar in the skillet. The dish delivers a balanced blend of soft eggs, slightly crisp asparagus, and earthy mushrooms, finished with a cheesy topping. It is served directly from the skillet, emphasizing its rustic simplicity.
Ingredients
- 2 oz mushrooms 55g
- 2 oz asparagus 55g, trimmed weight
- 1 clove garlic small
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 egg
- 2 tablespoon milk or cream
- 3 tablespoon cheddar cheese grated, or a cheddar-parmesan blend
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 pinch black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400F/200C. Slice the mushrooms, cutting bigger slices in half, and cut the asparagus into bite-sized lengths. Cut the garlic into small dice and toss the mushrooms, asparagus and garlic in the oil in a small skillet.
- Put the skillet with the vegetables in the pre-heated oven for approximately 10 minutes until the asparagus is just tender.
- Create two little spaces in the skillet for the eggs and crack them in. Drizzle over the milk then sprinkle on the cheese along with a little salt and pepper.
- Return to the oven and bake for approximately another 7-8 minutes (depending how well done you want the eggs and on your oven), but keep a close eye on it towards the end. Remember it will continue to cook a little in the hot skillet so you want to take it out slightly early. Serve in the skillet.
