Flower power eggs
Author: British Lion eggs (www.egginfo.com/recipes)
Ingredients
- 3 large peppers (try to choose ones with a flatter bottom)
- 3 spring onions, thinly sliced
- 75g cheese, coarsely grated (use your favourite or try crumbled goats’ cheese)
- Pinch of chilli flakes
- Pinch of paprika
- 6 eggs
Method
- Preheat oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5.
- Cut each pepper in half through the waist and remove the middle and seeds. Slice off enough of the green stalk so that the pepper will sit flat. Place into a small baking dish and bake for 5 mins.
- Remove from the oven and divide the onions and cheese between the pepper halves. Scatter with a few chilli flakes or a pinch of paprika. Crack an egg into each half and return to the oven for 15-20 mins or until the eggs are set.
- Enjoy hot or cold (you can keep the cooked peppers in the fridge for up to 3 days).
