Ingredients

2 slices Shaved ham
Asiago cheese, grated
1 Egg
Splash of milk (or cream if you have it)

Preparation

Preheat oven to 375.

Grease a ramekin (or muffin tin). Line the cup with ham. Sprinkle cheese in bottom. Crack egg into cup. Pour just a touch of milk/cream on top of egg, this will keep egg from setting too hard.

Bake for 20 minutes, no more, or the yolk will not be runny.

Cook's Notes

You need to use shaved ham for this, not the really thick sliced ham. However, you need shaved ham with a little bit of body to it. If you can see through the ham, it will work for eating, but won’t be pretty if you’re serving for a party. I used prepacked “deli-style” shaved ham, and because it’s done by a machine, the ham comes out of the package torn. My recommendation is to go to your store’s deli and have them shave it for you. You might tell them what you’re using it for and see if they can adjust the settings on their machine so it is a little thicker.
