Baked Eggs with Prawns


So, this recipe is from a book from the UK. 225 grams of prawn. 50 grams of butter. 450 ml of milk. After I enlisted my husband, the math genius (seriously, he really is) to convert the amounts for me, I also enlisted him to make it for me.

1. Mix cooked prawn (we went with shrimp) and the egg yolk from hard boiled eggs.


2. Make a white sauce from a roux. I could seriously eat a bowl of this.


3. Put some of the sauce with the shrimp mixture, then pour the rest on top of the eggs. YUM.


4. Bake until brown.

So, here's what we thought of the recipe. It was delicious, but very rich. I'll keep the recipe, knowing that I can only eat it about once a year. It'd be perfect over some whole wheat toast. So, next time we need a decadent breakfast, this will be my go to recipe. So, it stays in my notebook of recipes.
