Why This Particular Combination? Eggs offer premium protein and vital nutrients, and tomatoes are a great source of potassium, folate, and vitamins C and K. This combo is delicious and provides you with a quick energy boost to get through the day.
Components:
- Four sizable tomatoes
- Four eggs
- To taste, add salt and pepper.
- Garnish with optional herbs like chives or basil.
- A sprinkling of grated cheese is optional.
Guidelines:
- First, prepare the tomatoes by putting the oven temperature on 375°F (190°C). Slice off the top of each tomato gently, leaving the walls intact, and use a spoon to carefully hollow out the insides while the oven preheats. Your eggs will naturally form a cup as a result.
- Season: Drizzle a little salt and pepper inside each tomato. For added flavour, feel free to add a pinch of your preferred dried herbs.
- Crack an egg into each tomato cup to add the eggs. When baked, try not to break the yolk for a beautiful presentation.
- Bake: To keep the tomatoes stable, put them in a baking dish. This is the perfect opportunity to top with some grated cheese if you enjoy cheese. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the eggs set to your desired consistency, in a preheated oven.
- Garnish and Serve: Take out of the oven and sprinkle some fresh herbs, such as chives or basil, on top. These provide your meal a vibrant burst of flavour and color.
Serving suggestions:
- Although this meal tastes great on its own, it also goes well with a light salad or a slice of whole-grain toast. It’s a vibrant, well-balanced dinner that will wow everyone.
- This tomato recipe with egg is a culinary delight for the senses as well as the eyes. This is a great way to get extra veggies into your breakfast and to make cooking interesting. Savour this delicious, simple-to-make recipe that will quickly become a morning staple!
