# Ingredients:

4 eggs.

6 thin slices of bacon (or 1 slice of ham).
03 -
50 grams of shredded cheese.
04 -
1 teaspoon of dried herbs.

Salt and pepper to taste.

Some lamb’s lettuce (for garnish).

# Let's Cook:
01 -
Turn your oven on and preheat it to 220°C (Gas Mark 7-8).
02 -
Carefully separate the yolks from the whites, keeping each yolk in its own small bowl.
03 -
Add a small pinch of salt, then whip the whites until stiff peaks form. Use a spatula to gently fold in the herbs, shredded cheese, and chopped bacon.
04 -
Line a baking tray with parchment paper and shape the whipped whites into 4 dome shapes. Use the back of a spoon to make a hollow in the center of each dome.
05 -
Bake at 220°C for about 6-7 minutes, until the whites just start turning a light golden color.
06 -
Carefully take the tray out and place one yolk in the hollowed-out center of each dome. Sprinkle a little salt and pepper over the yolks.
07 -
Return the tray to the oven for another 3 minutes at 220°C, just until the yolks are warmed through.
08 -
Serve each cloud egg on a bed of lamb’s lettuce. Pair it with sautéed potatoes or a vegetable side of your choice.
