Tips
- Why it works
- Press the ham in tightly so the egg doesn't leak out while baking. Thin slices won't burn, they turn crispy.
- Substitutions
- Use thin slices of Doktorskaya sausage (55 g) instead of ham, which is less salty. You can use mozzarella (25 g) for the cheese, but it melts more.
- Common mistakes
- If the yolk hasn't set and the white is burnt, the temperature is too high. Check after 10 minutes.
- Storing and reheating
- Eat right away or keep in the fridge for 1 day. Reheat in the microwave for 20 seconds, covering the plate.
- Serve with
- Serve with toast and tea for a quick breakfast, when you have no time for an omelet.
