Ingredients

  • 4 eggs

  • 2 tbsp cream

  • 1 medium ripe tomato

  • ¼ red chilli a small bunch of fresh coriander

  • ½ lime

Method

  1. Put two small ramakins on the countertop or table. You can crack two eggs directly into each, or if it seems easier you can crack them into a bowl and then gently pour them into each ramakin.

  2. Pour a tablespoon of cream on top of the eggs in each ramakin. Season them with salt and pepper.

  3. Ask an adult to help you put the two ramakins into the oven. Leave them in the oven for about 18 minutes and make sure the egg white is completely set before taking them out. An adult can help with this step.

  4. While the eggs are baking you can make the tomato salsa to go on top. Ask an adult to help you cut the tomato into small little cubes. When this is done add a little salt and pepper.

  5. Chop the red chilli into very small pieces and chop the coriander as well. Mix these into the tomato. You can add enough lime juice until it tastes good. You probably will not need all of the juice from the half a lime.

  6. When the eggs have cooled down, so that you can safely touch them, add some of the salsa to the top and enjoy or serve to someone in your household.
