Serves 2

Ingredients 2 free range eggs 2 tbsp of single cream Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Method Preheat the oven to 180°c Butter the insides of the ramekin dishes with a butter paper. Break an egg into each ramekin and spoon over a generous spoonful of cream, season. Prepare a bain-marie (boiling water poured into a baking tray) and gently place the ramekins into the water. Place the bain-marie in the centre of the oven. Cook in the pre-heated oven for 20 minutes or until the eggs are set.

Delicious with buttered brown toast.

For a variation add bacon, cheese and spinach to the mixture.

Country Life is unlike any other magazine: the only glossy weekly on the newsstand and the only magazine that has been guest-edited by HRH The King not once, but twice. It is a celebration of modern rural life and all its diverse joys and pleasures — that was first published in Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee year. Our eclectic mixture of witty and informative content — from the most up-to-date property news and commentary and a coveted glimpse inside some of the UK's best houses and gardens, to gardening, the arts and interior design, written by experts in their field — still cannot be found in print or online, anywhere else.
