Egg Bites
AH, the notorious egg bites! I resisted making these for a while because, well, Starbucks sells them. However, I overcame my pretentious inclinations and had a go - I didn’t regret it.
In this recipe are a few suggestions for fillings (but from a quick bit of research it seems like the world is your oyster when it comes to what to put in them!).
For an 8oz jar:
-2 large eggs, whisked
-1 tbsp cream
Some possible fillings:
Crispy bacon & cheddar:
2 rashes crispy bacon & 20g cheddar
Mushrooms, thyme & parmesan:
1 (diced) cooked flat mushroom & 15g parmesan
Roasted red pepper & gruyere:
1/2 (diced) roasted red pepper & 20g gruyere
Add all your ingredients to your jar, mix and using your fingertips, loosely put the lid on. (Don’t put the lid on too tight as the air needs to escape -otherwise it might explode!).
Lower slowly into your preheated sous vide (78°C / 172°F) and cook for 1 hour. Serve hot or cold.
