Egg in the "nest"

1 serving


Boil the potatoes, and make the mash. Carefully separate the whites from the yolks in 2 eggs so as not to damage the yolks. Whisk the whites into a strong foam and gently stir into the mashed potatoes. If you like, you can add onions, finely chopped and fried until golden. Brush the baking sheet with butter and arrange the potato mass as a five-slide. In the center of each slide, make a hole, and apply a pattern on the sides using a fork, in the form of intertwined branches. Release a yolk into each hole, salt a little. Bake in the preheated oven until the egg is set and the surface is lightly browned.
