Instructions
1 Preheat oven to 180°C. Line a baking dish with baking paper and arrange spinach on top. Add courgettes, capsicum and mushrooms. Bake for 15 minutes then carefully remove from oven.
2 Break 4 of 6 eggs and place them on top of vegetables in baking dish (you may want to make little hollows with a spoon to place eggs). With remaining 2 eggs, separate whites from yolks and set yolks aside. Pour whites over vegetables and return to the still warm oven. Grill for 10 minutes until eggs are done.
3 Meanwhile, to make sauce, whisk together yolks, milk and cornflour in a pot over a low heat until mixture thickens then add mustard.
4 Remove baking dish from oven and pour sauce over eggs. Serve immediately. Garnish with fresh basil, parsley or chives if you prefer.
Variations
- To make this into a main meal, double the number of eggs you’re grilling (8 instead of 4) and serve with wholegrain bread.
- If capsicum is out of season, use sliced leek or diced onion instead.
- If you don’t have fresh spinach, use 2 cups defrosted frozen spinach.
