Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Large eggs
- 2 pieces Leeks (white and light green parts only)
- 200 grams Cremini or button mushrooms
- 30 grams Unsalted butter
- 15 grams All-purpose flour
- 250 milliliters Whole milk
- 60 milliliters Heavy cream
- 50 grams Gruyère cheese, grated
- 10 grams Fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 1 pinch Ground nutmeg (optional)
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Lightly grease two oven-safe ramekins or small baking dishes with olive oil.
Slice the leeks into thin rounds and rinse thoroughly under cold water to remove any grit. Pat them dry with a paper towel.
Thinly slice the mushrooms and set aside.
In a medium skillet over medium heat, melt half of the butter (15 grams) and add the sliced leeks. Cook them until softened and slightly golden, about 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove the leeks from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, melt the remaining butter. Add the mushrooms and sauté until golden and tender, about 5 minutes. Season lightly with salt and pepper, then remove from the skillet and set aside.
Lower the heat and sprinkle the flour into the skillet with the remaining butter. Whisk continuously to create a roux. Slowly pour in the milk, whisking constantly to avoid lumps. Cook the mixture for about 3–5 minutes until the sauce thickens.
Stir in the heavy cream, Gruyère cheese, a pinch of nutmeg (if using), and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper. Stir the leeks and mushrooms back into the sauce.
Divide the creamy leek and mushroom mixture evenly between the prepared ramekins. Use the back of a spoon to create a small well in the center of each dish, then gently crack an egg into each well.
Place the ramekins on a baking sheet for easy handling. Bake in the preheated oven for 10–12 minutes or until the egg whites are set, but the yolks remain runny. If you prefer firmer yolks, bake for an additional 2–3 minutes.
Remove the ramekins from the oven and sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley. Serve immediately with crusty bread or a side salad.
