Baked Eggs with Curried Spinach
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 2 large tomatoes (about 1 pound), chopped
- 1/2 cup dried red lentils, picked over and rinsed
- 1 15 -ounce jar prepared curry sauce (such as tikka masala)
- Kosher salt
- 10 ounces baby spinach (about 16 cups)
- 4 large eggs
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- 2 pieces naan bread
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Melt the butter in a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add the tomatoes and cook until softened, 2 to 3 minutes.
- Add the lentils, curry sauce, 1/2 cup water and 1/4 teaspoon salt; stir well to coat.
- Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until the lentils are tender, about 8 minutes.
- Gradually add the spinach, stirring until wilted.
- Reduce the heat to medium.
- Make 4 wells in the lentil mixture and crack an egg into each; spoon the heavy cream over the eggs.
- Continue cooking until the whites begin to set, 3 to 4 minutes.
- Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake until the egg whites are just set but the yolks are still runny, about 10 minutes.
- (The eggs will continue cooking after you remove them from the oven.)
- Let rest, 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, wrap the naan in foil and warm in the oven, about 5 minutes.
- Cut into wedges and serve with the eggs.
