Ingredients
½ teaspoon extra virgin olive oil

2 tablespoons finely chopped parsley
Method
- Preheat oven to 180’C.
- Oil a 12 cup muffin pan, then ease a slice of prosciutto into each one, leaving 2cm above the pan edge. Ensure there are no holes where egg could seep through.
- Place a slice of tomato inside the prosciutto, then a spoonful of shredded cheese into each cup, then crack an egg into each on top of the cheese. Season with salt and pepper, and then sprinkle with chopped parsley.
- Bake for 13 to 15 minutes, or until the eggs are cooked as desired. Serve hot or cold.
