ingredients
2 whole eggs
1 oz sliced bilboa chorizo
1 oz slice piquillos
165g | 6 fl oz ladle Brava Sauce
25g | 3 "quarter-sized" dots Whipped Miti Crema
30g Salsa Verde Morunos
less 1g Cracked Black Pepper, garnish at pass on eggs
Saute the chorizo and the piquillo peppers in the hot gambas pan until warmed through. You will not need oil in the pan. Do not add any, the final dish will be too oily.
Add a 6 oz ladle of brava sauce. Bring to a simmer, do not boil.
Using a large spoon, create two (2) small "wells" in the sauce that slightly expose the bottom of the hot gambas pan.
Gently crack an egg into each well. Take care not to break the yolk. And watch for egg shells!
DO NOT CONTINUE IF YOU HAVE BROKEN THE YOLK. START OVER.
Bring the sauce & eggs to a simmer for 1-2 minutes. You will start to see the whites setting on the bottom & edges of the pan.
Cover the pan with a small stainless steel lid.
Move to a hot 450-550 degree oven.
Bake, keeping it covered for 4-5 minutes. The timing will depend on how hot your oven is, how many times you have to open the oven door, how many other items are cooking in the oven, etc.
Bake eggs to just set and runny, between 5-7 minutes.
While the eggs are baking in the oven, toast 2 pcs of filone to golden brown on the plancha with oil.
DO NOT SERVE EGGS WITH COOKED THROUGH YOLKS UNLESS THE GUEST REQUESTS.
Remove from the oven, top with 3 quarter-sized dots of whipped miti crema cheese & 3 tablespoons of salsa verde moruno.
Set the hot pan on a trivet, set on a gambas board.
Stack & set the toast at one end of the gambas board.
At the pass, garnish with Maldon Sea Salt, cracked black pepper.
critical control points
Do not overcook the eggs or serve broken yolks.
Your eggs will continue to cook in the hot pan and sauce if they sit at the pass too long. Make sure this is run to the table immediately.
Lightly sautée the chorizo to release the oils before adding your tomato sauce
