  • Let's get all the ingredients ready first. Large eggs are best, ideally farm-fresh. Any bacon works, whether smoked or raw, but I recommend using bacon that's already cut into thin strips. Use canned or frozen peas; if frozen, thaw them first so there's no excess liquid in the finished dish. Also preheat the oven ahead of time so it reaches 350°F (180°C). Since we're baking, you'll need oven-safe baking dishes — either one large dish or small individual ones. Grease them with butter and sprinkle with breadcrumbs (if you don't have breadcrumbs, a little flour or semolina works fine). Lay overlapping slices of bacon across the bottom of the dish. If your bacon isn't pre-sliced, cut it thin so it crisps up in the finished dish. Then crack in the eggs, keeping the yolks intact. Don't forget to salt, and pepper if you like. Add the green peas and sprinkle generously with coarsely grated cheese. Bake for 20 minutes. That's the timing for a 6-inch (16 cm) dish and firmly set yolks. If you're using small individual dishes, or you want runnier yolks, it'll take about 12-15 minutes; a very large dish or a firmer texture will take a bit longer. While the eggs bake, you can brew coffee or make toast. Sprinkle the finished dish with chopped parsley or any herbs you like — dill or cilantro are great. Serve the baked eggs with bacon and cheese right away, while hot. Serve straight from the dish or plate them up. They go beautifully with soft homemade bread and a fresh seasonal vegetable salad. Enjoy!
