Cloud Eggs

Cloud eggs are a trendy and visually appealing way to prepare eggs. Here's a simple recipe for cloud eggs:

Ingredients:

• Eggs (as many as you'd like)
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Fresh herbs (chives, parsley, or any herbs of your choice, optional)

Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven:

   • Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C).

2. Separate Egg Whites and Yolks:

   • Carefully separate the egg whites from the yolks. Place each egg white in its own bowl, ensuring that there is no yolk mixed in with the whites. You can do this by transferring the yolk back and forth between the shell halves, allowing the whites to fall into a bowl.

3. Whip Egg Whites:

   • Using an electric mixer or a whisk, whip the egg whites until stiff peaks form. This will take a few minutes. You want the whites to be thick and fluffy.

4. Form Clouds on Baking Sheet:

   • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Spoon the whipped egg whites onto the baking sheet, forming cloud-like shapes with a well in the centre for the yolk.

5. Bake Egg Whites:

   • Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake the egg whites for about 3 minutes. Keep an eye on them, as the cooking time can vary. The whites should be set but not overly browned.

6. Add Yolks:

   • Carefully place an egg yolk into the well of each cloud. Season with salt and pepper.

7. Bake Until Yolks Set:

   • Return the baking sheet to the oven and bake for an additional 2-3 minutes or until the egg yolks are set to your liking.

8. Garnish and Serve:

   • Remove from the oven and garnish with fresh herbs if desired. Serve the cloud eggs immediately while they are warm.

Enjoy your cloud eggs as a visually stunning and delicious breakfast or brunch dish! Feel free to get creative with additional toppings or seasonings based on your preferences.
