oeufs en cocotte

oeufs en cocotte is a french way of making baked eggs.
Its super easy and super yum. Here is how I prefer to make and eat them :)


Ingredients:
2 tea spoon creme fraiche
1 egg 
little bit dill for garnish/finely chopped coriander
oregano, thyme, chilly flakes
salt and black pepper for taste

Recipe:
-Put 1 teaspoon creme fraiche in a oven proof cup/ramekin
-Crack egg and drop straight on top of creme
-put salt and pepper for taste
-Add herbs and dill
-Put 1 teaspoon creme fraiche on top
- Take boiling water in oven tray, and keep cup in it. Bake on 180 degree celcius for about 20-30 minutes.


Note:
- French prefer to keep yolk little runny (just a tip)
- It can also be baked in double boiler.
- Creme fraiche is nothing but yogurt/dahi made of full fat/double cream.
