Ingredients:

1 Baguette

5 Eggs

9 Slices Ham

175g Gruyere Cheese

45g Butter

35g Flour

400ml Milk

½ Tsp Nutmeg

Pinch of Salt and Pepper

Instructions:

Melt the butter in a pan and when melted add the flour.

Cook for 3-4 minutes over a medium heat to cook out the flour but do not colour.

Pour in the milk a little at a time, ensuring the last pour of milk has been incorporated fully before adding more.

Continue until all the milk is used and you have a thick white sauce.

Stir in the nutmeg, salt, and pepper and then add 150g of the Gruyere Cheese, then stir until melted and combined.

Cut your baguette in half and then cut 5 circular holes in the top half of the baguette.

Spread the cheese sauce on the base of the baguette and then lay out 4 slices of ham on top of the sauce.

Sprinkle over the remaining cheese and then add the top half of the baguette.

Move to a baking tray then form each of the remaining slices of the ham in to a ‘cone’ shape and then place in each of the holes you cut.

Finally place an egg in each cone before baking at 180°C or 350°F for 10 minutes or until the eggs are cooked to your liking.
