Baked Eggs with Mash



A leftovers idea this one. Something you can chuck together from bits and bobs in the fridge. I made this on Sunday using extra mash from dinner. Was very yummy, but the eggs were slightly over cooked.

For 2-3 portions you need:
Mashed potato flavoured with whatever you fancy - I used 2 onions sauteed in butter until really crispy; chopped chives; chopped parsley; 1 tsp french mustard and some cheddar.
4 eggs
Grated cheese: cheddar, emmental or gruyere all work well.

Put the mash in an oven proof dish and make 4 wells for the eggs. Crack the eggs in to the hollows and sprinkle cheese over the top. Bake for 20-30 mins until the cheese is melted, the potato is cooked and the eggs are just done.

It's nice served with peas or salad.
