What a lovely combination of flavours. The only problem I had was for my personal taste, at 10 minutes the yolk was perfect but the whites were still too soft. I gave it a couple more minutes and the yolk was a bit too set. That said, it still tasted great. A soft yolk over the veg would be better though. I did talke a picture and the battery went dead immediately. I am not sure if it actually got the pic. If there is anything there I will post it later. Thanks for sharing your recipe.

Gosh, a different and charming way to do eggs! Easily prepared and striking visually! Easily spiced up or down according to individual taste. I made this for my DHs brunch and he enjoyed the change of pace! Thanks for a lovely recipe, Julie! Made for ZWT5
