Molly Coddled Eggs Recipes

MOLLY - CODDLED EGGS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 180°C.
• Grease a ramekin liberally. You can supposedly buy egg coddlers which are little ramekins with lids but I have never seen them. A ramekin works fine.
• Crack in an egg add the cream and top with the cheese.
• In an oven proof dish put the ramekin and then pour enough boiling water to come halfway up the ramekin.
• bake for 12 - 15 minutes until the eggs are lightly set.

EASY CODDLED EGGS

Steps:

• Line a deep skillet with 2 layers of paper towels and fill with 1 to 2 inches of water, bring to a boil.
• Break one egg into each buttered ramekin and season with salt and pepper to taste. Pour 2 tsp of heavy cream around each unbroken egg yolk.
• Sprinkle with 2 tsp of grated cheese.
• Place all 4 ramekins in skillet and turn down heat so water is simmering. Cover and steam eggs for 4-6 minutes or until whites are set. If you like runny yolks, serve now. If you like yolks cooked longer, then continue to steam a little longer.
• Garnish with your favorite toppings (salsa, crumbled bacon, etc.).

CODDLED EGGS

Steps:

• Line the bottom of a saucepan with a kitchen towel. Fill the pan with enough water to come just below the rim of the coddlers. Place over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil.
• Butter the insides of each coddler. Pour 1/2 teaspoon heavy cream in each. Add one egg; season with salt and pepper. Screw on lids tightly. Carefully place egg coddlers into boiling water.
• Reduce heat to medium, and simmer for 4 minutes. Turn off heat, cover pan, and let stand for 6 to 7 minutes. Remove coddlers from water, unscrew lids, and serve immediately.
