Steps
STEP 1
Place 3 large ramekins in the combination oven on convection and preheat at 190°C for 20 minutes.
STEP 2
Meanwhile, prepare the Parmesan batter by whisking together all the ingredients in a bowl.
STEP 3
In a separate, oil-free bowl, whisk the egg whites and salt with a hand mixer until foamy. Add the sugar and continue to whisk for another minute. Add the corn flour and whisk egg whites until stiff peaks form.
STEP 4
Fold one third of egg whites into the egg yolk mixture, then fold in the remainder of the egg whites.
STEP 5
Remove the preheated ramekins from the oven and brush the inner bases and sides with oil. Pour batter into each of the ramekins to 2/3 full.
STEP 6
Return the ramekins to the oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, until the batter is half-cooked and domed in the centre.
STEP 7
Pull the ramekins out and press down in the centre of each half-cooked batter with the back of a large spoon to make an indentation. Pour an egg into each ramekin, ensuring the egg yolks go into the indentations.
STEP 8
Return the tray into the oven and reset temperature to 160°C. Bake for another 13-15 minutes until eggs are set. Serve hot.
Tip: For extra bite, add a little chopped sausage or chicken to the egg yolk batter before folding in the egg whites.
