heavy cream

Reduced-fat cheese lowers calories without sacrificing flavor

In a pot, combine julienne shallots, minced garlic, and halved cherry tomatoes to create a stew.

Season the stew with salt and black pepper to taste.

Transfer the stew into a ramekin-type dish, making a divot in the center for the egg.

Crack a farm-fresh egg into a small bowl to avoid shell fragments, then place it into the divot in the stew.

Repeat the process to make three servings in total.

Add a spoonful of creme fraiche over each egg for added fat and flavor.

Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over the top of the eggs.

Pour boiling water into the baking dish to create a bain-marie for even cooking.

Bake in the oven for 15 to 20 minutes, depending on desired egg doneness (15 minutes for runny yolk, 20 minutes for more cooked).

Remove from the oven and check that the cheese has melted and the eggs are set.
