This is a great one for
when someone
unexpected arrives
and you need something
a bit special. I can put this together while talking to them and it never lets me down.




Favourite Egg Pie
This is a quick and easy recipe for a weekend lunch.
you will need:
2 sheets ready rolled puff pasty
2 shallots (1/2 an onion is OK)
2 rashers bacon
6-7 eggs
Fresh breadcrumbs
1/3 cup grated cheese
1tbsp plain flour
a little butter
Grease a flan dish or pie plate and line with pastry. Chop shallots and sprinkle over the bottom.
chop bacon and spread over shallots. Break whole eggs around the edge of the pie plate and one in the middle. Put breadcrumbs, grated cheese, and flour in a bowl and rub butter in. Then sprinkle on top, without breaking eggs (I usually cover all over).

Bake in a moderate oven 180c till golden brown and eggs are set. Takes approx 40 mins.
