INGREDIENTS

Base
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 🍖 ½ cup finely chopped ham
- 🧀 2 tablespoons grated Gruyère cheese
- 🥛 ½ cup heavy whipping cream
- 🧂 Salt to taste
- 🧂 Ground black pepper to taste
- 🥚 2 large eggs
- ¼ teaspoon chopped fresh chives

STEPS

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a small, lidded casserole dish with olive oil. Boil water in a kettle and set aside.

Arrange ham in the bottom of the prepared casserole dish. Sprinkle with 1 tablespoon Gruyère cheese. Pour in cream and season with black pepper. Crack eggs on top, one at a time, making sure yolks remain intact. Sprinkle with remaining 1 tablespoon Gruyère cheese and chives. Season with salt and black pepper.

Cover the casserole dish and place it into a roasting pan. Pour enough boiled water into the roasting pan to reach halfway up the sides of the casserole dish.

Bake in the preheated oven for 9 minutes. Uncover and continue baking until whites are just set and yolks are still runny, about 3 to 6 more minutes.
