• Heat oven to 350 degrees F and arrange rack in middle. Butter 4 (6-ounce) ramekins and set aside.
• Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a large frying pan over medium heat. When it foams, add onion, season well with salt and freshly ground black pepper, and cook until softened, about 1 minute. Add spinach and cook until spinach is well wilted, about 2 minutes.
• Place ham on bottom of ramekins and top with spinach. Crack eggs into ramekins, place 1 tablespoon cream over each egg, and divide half of cheese evenly among ramekins.
• Put ramekins on a baking sheet and bake, rotating pan halfway through baking, until whites are just set but yolks are still runny, about 15 to 18 minutes.

BACON-AND-EGG SOUP

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375. Cook the bacon in a medium pot over medium heat until crisp, about 7 minutes. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate with a slotted spoon, then discard all but 2 tablespoons drippings from the pot. While the bacon cooks, toss the bread cubes with the olive oil on a baking sheet and season with salt and pepper. Bake until golden and crisp, about 8 minutes.
• Add the garlic to the bacon drippings and cook until slightly golden, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the broth, 1 1/2 cups water, the parmesan rind and 2 tablespoons parsley; season with salt and pepper. Cover and bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook 10 minutes.
• Adjust the heat so the broth is barely boiling. One at a time, crack each egg into a small bowl and gently slip into the broth. Poach until just set, about 2 minutes. Transfer the eggs with a slotted spoon to individual soup bowls. Stir 1 cup parmesan and the remaining 2 tablespoons parsley into the broth and season with salt and pepper. Ladle the broth into the bowls and top with the croutons, bacon and the remaining 1/4 cup parmesan.

EGG 'N' BACON DIPPERS

Steps:

• First, make the bacon crumbs. Put the bacon in a dry frying pan and cook until really crisp. Transfer to a plate lined with kitchen paper, then pour all but a drizzle of oil out of the pan. Add the breadcrumbs, cook for a few mins until they turn golden and crisp, then tip these out too and leave to cool. Once the bacon is cool, put in a food processor and blitz to fine crumbs, add the breadcrumbs and give it another quick blitz to combine. Tip into a jar or tub and chill until ready to serve. Will keep for 2 days. Bring back to room temperature before eating.
• Bring a large pan of water to the boil and fill a large bowl with ice-cold water. Add the quail's eggs to the pan and cook for 2 mins, then fish out and plunge straight into the cold water. Repeat with the asparagus or broccoli, if using, cooking for just 1 min. Once cool, drain the veg and dry the eggs, put in a container or pop the eggs back in their egg box to transport.
• Whizz the ingredients for the watercress mayo in a food processor, or just finely chop the watercress and mix everything together. Spoon this into a container for transporting, too. To serve, peel an egg (or take a piece of veg) and dip into the mayo, then into the bacon crumbs.

CRISPY OVEN BACON AND EGGS

Steps:

• Take the eggs out of the refrigerator. Place a rack in the center of the oven, and heat the oven to 450 degrees.
• Arrange the bacon on a rimmed baking sheet in a single layer, spacing evenly. Roast in the center of the oven until the fat renders and the bacon curls, about 8 minutes. Very thin slices will cook more quickly; thick-cut ones will take longer.
• Take the pan out of the oven and quickly flip the bacon and move to one side of the pan. Crack the eggs onto the other side, then immediately return the pan to the oven and roast until the whites are just set, the yolks are still runny and the bacon is brown and crisp, 2 to 5 minutes longer. If you prefer medium or hard egg yolks or extra-crisp bacon, cook a few minutes more, but take out the bacon before it burns.
• Using a spatula, cut the eggs apart. Slide them off the pan and onto plates right away to stop the yolks from solidifying. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Drain the bacon on paper towels, then add to the plate along with toast. Serve immediately.
