Ingredients

  • 1 long (50cm) baguette
  • 80g garlic butter, softened

  1. Preheat the oven to 180°C fan forced. Line a roasting pan with baking paper.
  2. Cut the baguette in half crossways. Use a small, serrated knife to cut two 7cm long sections out of each piece, about 2cm deep. Pull out some of the bread to create a shallow hole, enough to hold the cheese and egg filling. Place the baguettes in a pan.
  3. Brush garlic butter liberally in each hole. Press ¼ cup cheese into each hole including up the sides. Crack 1 egg at a time into a small bowl, then pour one egg into each hole. Repeat with remaining eggs.
  4. Cover securely with a sheet of greased foil. Bake for 25 minutes until whites are almost set, then remove foil and bake for a further 5-7 minutes or until egg whites are cooked through. Remove from the oven tray and cut each piece in half.
  5. Spoon over chilli jam. Sprinkle with dukkha and parsley. Serve.

Notes

  • Choose large thick baguettes for this recipe as thin French baguettes won’t be thick enough to hold eggs.  
  • Reserve bread that is removed to make breadcrumbs. Freeze them to use for later.
  • Find dukkah and sweet chilli jam at major supermarkets or where Middle eastern spices are sold.
  • You can use other relishes such as sweet chilli or tomato relish.
