- 4 slices ham
- 50g (2oz) Dutch Edam wedge, grated

Method
- Preheat the oven to 200ºC, 400ºF, gas mark 6. Lightly brush four holes in a muffin tin with the oil.

- One by one, crack each egg into a cup, and pour into the ham cases. Sprinkle each with the remaining cheese, and a little paprika, then bake in the oven for 10-12 mins, or until the eggs are just set.
- Serve hot with soldiers of fresh white crusty bread to dip in the runny yolk and tomato ketchup.
