Thanks to Colin Griffiths for this recipe and accompanying photograph. Colin and [[Cookipedia]] seem to have an affinity with [[Eggs|eggs]] for it is his pictures that grace our [[Ostrich]] section!

From the picture, this looks fantastic.

Our [[How to boil an egg|how to boil an egg]] section has useful cooking time information so you can get the yolk set to your preference.

Do not use very fresh eggs or you won't be able to peel them - see [[eggs]].
