Instructions

Preheat your oven to 190°C/Fan 180°C and lightly grease the top few centimetres of 2 small serving bowls.

Over a medium heat, fry the garlic in a little oil in a heavy bottomed saucepan for a minute then add the chopped tomatoes. (Careful, it will likely splatter.)

Add the basil, sugar and salt and pepper to taste. Then simmer for about 10-15 minutes to reduce it down.

Meanwhile, chop your ham into small pieces and place into two small serving bowls.

When the tomatoes are at your preferred consistency, (I like mine quite thick) pour into the serving bowls and mix with the ham.

Carefully crack an egg onto the top of each bowl and sprinkle with a little salt and pepper.

Pop into the oven on a baking tray for about 15 minutes or until the egg white is cooked but the yolk is still runny.

Serve immediately with buttered ‘soldiers’. Or for a gluten free option, try cooked asparagus wrapped in parma ham or prosciutto.

Hi Danielle. I personally always prefer to make things like this fresh on the day so have never tried preparing it the night before. Might be worth a try though? I'd love to know how you get on. Emma x
