Breakfast Series: #1
Sourdough with Soft Boiled Eggs, Ricotta, Walnut & Slow-roasted Tomatoes
Some inspiration for a slow, weekend morning breakfast that feels a little lavish. If entertaining, you can roast the tomatoes & walnuts in advance.
Ingredients:
- Sourdough
- Cherry / truss tomatoes
- Garlic cloves
- Olive oil / salt / pepp
- Ricotta or cheese of choice (goats cheese / burrata would also work well)
- Lemon
- Fresh basil
- Walnuts
Method:
1. Preheat oven to 200c fan forced. Mix together the tomatoes (whole), garlic cloves (maybe 4-6), salt, pepp, and oil together in a bowl and lay on a baking sheet. Cook in oven until tomatoes are soft, juicy and begin to shrivel (around 45min-1hr).
2. Boil the eggs to your desired amount (soft or medium). We use this egg timer which is amazing. You just pop it in the pot with water and use as a guide. When eggs are done, transfer them into a bowl with cold water and ice to stop the cooking process and set aside to cool. When cooled, peel eggs.
3. Roast the walnuts on the stove top for a bit to bring out the flavour, and chop up. Mix the ricotta, some lemon zest, salt & pepp.
4. Toast sourdough, and when its still hot, rub one of the roasted garlic cloves on top, and butter. Add ricotta mixture, and then the slow-roasted tomato. Add the boiled eggs, roasted walnuts and fresh basil. Drizzle in olive oil or some balsamic glaze.
