Brunch time indeed! Baked eggs served with soliders (toast) is a delightful way to start the day!

Serves 4

Ingredients

40g butter

500g spinach, stalks removed

50g parmesan or tasty cheddar

4 Tbsp cream

Freshly grated nutmeg

4 eggs

Salt and freshly ground pepper

Method

Add 1 Tbsp butter to a pan and heat until melted, add the spinach and cook until wilted (1-2 minutes).

Place in a sieve and push out excess moisture.

Lightly grease the four ramekins with a little butter and then place equal amounts of the spinach.

Sprinkle over a little cheese on the spinach, leaving a little for the top.

Break one egg in each ramekin.

Season lightly with salt and pepper.

Pour over the cream, sprinkle with remaining cheese and finish with a grating of nutmeg and plenty of freshly ground pepper.

Bake in preheated oven 180C for about 20 minutes or until the eggs are just cooked.

Serve immediately, but do remember the dishes are hot!!
