- Take six ramekin dishes( i use the small ones that hold about 150ml).
- coat the inside with butter.
- crack 2 eggs into each dish(dont break the yolk) and put the ramekins into a flat bottom ovenproof dish or tray,pour hot water into the tray until it comes halfway up the side of the ramekins.and cook in a 200c oven .
- watch the progress of the cooking carefully; The eggs will be cooked when the whites have become opaque and the yolks are still liquid.
- (cook longer if you like them well done).
- remove from oven and top with sauce,parsley and nuts.
- Another way to serve this is let the ramekins cool enough to handle then carefully turn the eggs onto a plate and chill.
