CODDLED EGGS

Steps:

• Line the bottom of a saucepan with a kitchen towel. Fill the pan with enough water to come just below the rim of the coddlers. Place over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil.
• Butter the insides of each coddler. Pour 1/2 teaspoon heavy cream in each. Add one egg; season with salt and pepper. Screw on lids tightly. Carefully place egg coddlers into boiling water.
• Reduce heat to medium, and simmer for 4 minutes. Turn off heat, cover pan, and let stand for 6 to 7 minutes. Remove coddlers from water, unscrew lids, and serve immediately.

EASY CODDLED EGGS

Steps:

• Line a deep skillet with 2 layers of paper towels and fill with 1 to 2 inches of water, bring to a boil.
• Break one egg into each buttered ramekin and season with salt and pepper to taste. Pour 2 tsp of heavy cream around each unbroken egg yolk.
• Sprinkle with 2 tsp of grated cheese.
• Place all 4 ramekins in skillet and turn down heat so water is simmering. Cover and steam eggs for 4-6 minutes or until whites are set. If you like runny yolks, serve now. If you like yolks cooked longer, then continue to steam a little longer.
• Garnish with your favorite toppings (salsa, crumbled bacon, etc.).

MOLLY - CODDLED EGGS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 180°C.
• Grease a ramekin liberally. You can supposedly buy egg coddlers which are little ramekins with lids but I have never seen them. A ramekin works fine.
• Crack in an egg add the cream and top with the cheese.
• In an oven proof dish put the ramekin and then pour enough boiling water to come halfway up the ramekin.
• bake for 12 - 15 minutes until the eggs are lightly set.

CODDLED EGGS WITH FINES HERBES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly coat four egg coddlers with cooking spray, and set aside. Lightly coat a rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray. Place bread cubes on baking sheet; sprinkle with pepper. Bake until golden and crisp on all sides, turning them once during cooking, about 7 minutes. Remove from oven; set aside.
• Line bottom of a large saucepan with a kitchen towel, and fill with enough water to come just below rim of egg coddlers. Place pan over medium-high heat; bring water to a boil. Combine herbs in a small bowl, and mix well. Place 2 teaspoons mixed herbs in the bottom of each coddler; to each, add 1 whole egg and 1 egg white, and drizzle with 1 teaspoon heavy cream. Add 1/4 teaspoon salt to each, and season with pepper. Screw lids on tightly.
• Using tongs, carefully place egg coddlers in the boiling water. Reduce heat to medium, and simmer 6 minutes. Turn off heat; cover pan, and let stand 4 to 5 minutes. Remove coddlers from pan, and remove lids. Serve eggs in the coddlers. Top each with a few croutons, and garnish with remaining mixed herbs.

MANU'S CODDLED EGGS WITH SPINACH

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 180°C.
• Heat the oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the spinach and toss 1/2 minutes or until just wilted. Season to taste with salt & pepper and transfer to a colander. Press down on the spinach with the back of a large spoon (or use your hands) to remove as much excess liquid as possible.
• Brush the inside of four shallow 250ml capacity ramekins or gratin dishes with the melted butter. Sprinkle a little nutmeg, salt, and pepper into each ramekin, then place them in a deep roasting pan. Divide the spinach among the ramekins, then pour 2TB of the cream into each one. Carefully crack 2 eggs into each of the ramekins. Pour enough boiling water into the roasting pan, to come halfway up the sides of the ramekins.
• Bake the eggs for 7-12 minutes or until the whites are just set and the yolks are still runny. Remember, when you take the eggs out of the water bath, they will continue to cook. If the eggs are still a little runny for your liking, leave the ramekins to stand for 3-4 minutes. Season with a little pepper, then serve!
