Ingredients
Directions
- White Sauce: Melt butter. Add flour. Cook about 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Slowly pour milk into the saucepan, stirring, until sauce thickens. Salt and pepper it to taste.
- Eggs: Preheat oven to 350.
- Separate eggs; don't break the yolks. Put the yolks in their own bowl. Beat the egg whites until very stiff.
- Grease a baking sheet with butter. Heap 4 mounds of egg whites onto the baking sheet. Make an indentation with a tablespoon in each mound. Place a yolk in each indentation. Bake for about 20 minutes.
- Place a slice of toast on each plate. Pour 1/4 cup sauce over each piece. Place an egg mound on top of that, then pour the rest of the sauce over the eggs.
- Top with grated cheese, paprika and some salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately.
