Paperback is coming... still pending proof approval.
I have been using a similar recipe to this for years, called Convent Eggs, but this strikes me as an interesting variation with the coconut milk.
Baked Eggs with Coconut Milk and Cilantro
Sure, you could use heavy cream instead of coconut milk for this baked eggs recipe, but then it
wouldn’t be as healthyish.
Virgin coconut or vegetable oil (for ramekins)
2 large eggs
2 Tbs unsweetened coconut milk
Kosher salt
½ cup cilantro leaves with tender stems
1 tsp fresh lime juice
1 tesapoon green hot sauce
Store-bought fried shallots (for serving)
1. Preheat oven to 300°. Coat 2 small ramekins or other ovenproof dishes with oil. Add 1 large egg and 1 Tbsp. coconut milk to each. Set on a rimmed baking sheet and bake until eggs are barely set, 11–14 minutes; season with salt.
2. Toss cilantro in a small bowl with lime juice and hot sauce; season with salt. Top eggs with cilantro mixture and shallots.
Servings: 2

Hi Jo - great to see the release of Full Dark - looks an interesting anthology ... love some of the titles ... and eggs -always good to have - cheers Hilary
ReplyDeleteSome of the stories do look good Hilary. I hope it sells.
DeleteEggs are so very versatile.
Congratulations to all of the authors!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely Alex, how come you didn't write one?
DeleteWe're suckers for creepy stories, and bonus that we recognize and love many of those authors. Double bonus that it's for a good cause.
ReplyDeleteI don't think I've ever had eggs like that. Does baking them in ramekins with coconut milk make them softer and fluffier than compared to just making them in a pan?
You are so right Bryan it is nice to know the authors and how good they are.
DeleteNever made them with coconut milk but with cream. The recipe I have previously made includes a little Brie in the bottom and the result is delicious. Not sure about fluffier but well worth trying.
For as good as I am at cooking, I'm still lousy at making eggs, so if this takes the guesswork out of making a good egg, I'm all for trying it.
DeleteJust be careful to not overcook the egg. We have served the Convent Egg version to dinner guests many times and they have all loved them.
DeleteFrom what I've read so far, the stories are really good. (I got to read it early.)
ReplyDeleteNot read any but I can believe they are good Diane.
DeleteYou can have a free ARC copy, Jo. Just email me if you want one.
DeleteThanks Melissa. I just did.
DeleteThank you for sharing about our anthology, Jo.
ReplyDeleteBest wishes from the #FullDark11.
P.S. The paperback is out. It's available on Amazon and will eventually show up on B&N, too. ;)
DeleteYou're welcome Melissa. Glad to know the paperback is out too.
DeleteCongrats to all the authors to have their story published
ReplyDeleteEspecially as it's such a worthy cause Birgit
DeleteI love cilantro.
ReplyDeleteMe too Ivy
