Method

  1.  Preheat the oven to full whack. Lightly grease 2 ovenproof ramekins or small baking dishes with a little oil. 
  2. Prepare your chosen filling – roughly chop the spinach, quarter the tomatoes, finely chop the chives or slice the mushrooms.
  3. Place your chosen filling into the prepared ramekins, crack a couple of eggs on top and season with salt and pepper.
  4. Place in the hot oven for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny, then serve straight away.
