Eggs en Cocotte
Recipe courtesy Michael Chiarello, 2007
Ingredients
2 1/2 tablespoons butter
2 1/2 tablespoons freshly chopped thyme leaves
12 eggs, preferably organic
Gray salt or course sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
Directions
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
Rub the inside of 6 ramekins with the butter and then season with the thyme, distributing both
equally amongst the ramekins. Add 2 eggs to each, season with salt and pepper. Place the ramekins in
a baking dish, and pour water into the baking dish until it is halfway up the sides of the ramekins.
Carefully place the baking dish in the pre-heated oven. Bake eggs for 15 minutes, or until set and
golden on top. Eat and enjoy!
