Method

  • step 1

    Ask a grown-up helper to switch the oven on to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Put 4 ramekins in front of you. Cut the ham and spinach into strips with your scissors. Put some in each ramekin.

  • step 2

    Squash the cherry tomatoes into a bowl using your fingers. Spoon 2 tomatoes and some juices into each ramekin.

  • step 3

    Break an egg into a bowl. Scoop out any pieces of shell with a spoon, then tip the egg carefully into the ramekin. Do the same with the other 3 eggs.

  • step 4

    Grate the cheese and sprinkle some on top of each egg. Ask a grown-up helper to put them in the oven on an oven tray for 15-18 minutes or until the egg white has set.

RECIPE TIPS
VARY THE VEG

You can easily vary the vegetables in this dish depending on what your child likes. Frozen sweetcorn, frozen peas, snipped red or yellow pepper or spring onions all work well.

EQUIPMENT

You'll need a pair of children's scissors - decent plastic ones are good. A rotary grater is kinder to little knuckles.

This was a good recipe for my son but it could have been adapted so there is less washing up

I adapted this for my two girls as they wanted something different for supper but had no ramekins so used pie dishes instead and added mushrooms and onions they loved it, as did i, a new family fave and so easy to do. They both wanted more so might have to use a roasting tin next time. lol.…

My 5 year-old daughter loved making these so achieved it's purpose as a recipe. I'm left with the feeling however that making an omelette with the same ingredients would be quicker, easier, tastier and create less washing up.

Didn't have tomatoes so used salsa. Pretty nice. Yolks weren't runny though.

Loved the bit "Scoop out any pieces of shell with a spoon"! My son (10) could crack and open an egg in each hand on the edge of the table/pan/whatever simultaneously, without any shell in the mix! Got it from me, I guess....
