Equipment

  • Small or Medium baking dish

Ingredients
  

  • 4-6 eggs
  • 260 g can drained sweetcorn
  • 80 g spinach roughly chopped
  • 1 tablespoon chipotle paste
  • ½ teaspoon paprika
  • ½ teaspoon mild chilli powder
  • 100 g feta crumbled
  • 1 teaspoon honey
  • Chopped coriander for garnish
  • Squeeze of lime
  • Chilli oil optional
  • Sourdough toast or mini tortillas for serving

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 200°C. I always like to make sure it’s fully heated before adding the eggs so they bake evenly. In a baking dish, layer the spinach, sweetcorn, spices and honey. Dollop the chipotle paste across the vegetables for pockets of smoky heat.

  • Sprinkle crumbled feta over the top. As it melts slightly, it adds a creamy texture that contrasts beautifully with the sweetcorn and smoky chipotle. Bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes until the egg whites have set but the yolks remain slightly soft. Leave slightly longer if you like the yolks fully set, both are delicious!

Notes

Use fresh, free-range eggs for vibrant yolks and better flavor. They hold their shape well when baked in this dish. I also like to use non-stick or lightly oiled baking dish to prevent sticking and make serving easier.
