Baked Egg and Ham with Balsamic Tomatoes

Yield: SERVES 2

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Cook Time: 20 minutes

Total Time: 35 minutes

Delicious soft yolk baked eggs in ham cups served with tangy delicious balsamic tomatoes

Ingredients

for the baked ham and egg:

2 large eggs
4 thin slices of lean ham
salt and black pepper

for the balsamic tomatoes:

3 medium ripe tomatoes, peeled and roughly chopped
1 teaspoon of tomato paste
½ red onion, finely sliced
1 tablespoons of balsamic vinegar
2 cups of fresh spinach
salt and black pepper

for the crispy toast:

4 slices of whole wheat bread
low calorie spray

Instructions

For the baked ham and egg:
Preheat oven to 160c fan, 180c or 350f (gas mark 4)
Get two ramekin dishes and add twice slices of ham to each one, pushing it down so that it acts like a kind of cup.
Crack an egg into each dish, place the ramekins in a baking dish filled with a little bit off water
Baked in the oven till egg is cooked to your liking (approx 15-20 mins)
For the balsamic tomatoes:
Spray a frying pan over a medium high heat with spray oil and add the onion, frying for a few mins to soften.
Add the tomatoes and tomato paste, reduce heat a little and stir until tomatoes start to break down into a sauce.
Add the splash of balsamic vinegar and a little bit of water. Simmer for a few more mins, and then stir in the spinach.
For the crispy toast:
Toast the slices of bread lightly in the toaster, you want it still a bit soft, as it will toast more in the oven.
Cut in half diagonally and then using a bread knife, slice through each slice in between the toasted outside, so that you have very thin slices of toast.
Spray a baking tray with some low calorie spray and place bread on the tray (soft side down) then spray over the top of the bread, place in the oven and bake until crisp. Keep an eye on them though as they brown quickly.
Serve the toast with the baked egg and ham and balsamic tomatoes.
