EGG CLOUD WITH BAKED MASHED POTATOES AND SAUTEED MUSHROOMS



INGREDIENTS:

1.    Eggs as many clouds you wish to make (One egg makes one cloud per toast)
2.   Bread slices
3.   4 to 5 boiled potatoes
4.   1/2 cup grated cheese
5.   1/2 cup milk
6.   3 Tbs. fresh cream
7.   200 grams mushrooms
8. 1 large tomato sliced in wedges
9. 1 Tsp. mixed Italian herbs
10.   3 Tbs. butter
11.   Salt and pepper to taste

METHOD FOR MAKING THE MASHED POTATOES:

1.    Mash the boiled potatoes while they are still hot. Add the cream, 2 Tbs. butter, milk, cheese, salt and pepper to taste. Blend all this very well, till you get a very smooth creamy mixture.  
2.   You can bake this in an oven at a temperature of 180 degrees centigrade, till golden brown in colour. Cut out wedges and serve with the eggs.
3.   Alternatively you can use a PANIYARAM KADHAI to make this as I did. If you have one, lightly brush the interiors with butter. Place scoops of the potato mixture in each hole. Turn with a spatula till golden brown.



METHOD FOR MAKING THE SAUTEED MUSHROOMS:

1.    Heat 1 Tbs. of butter in a pan. Add the sliced mushrooms and the tomato wedges, 1 Tsp. mixed Italian herbs, salt and pepper to taste, and 1 Tbs. of fresh cream. Stir fry for 1 minute. Remove from heat.

METHOD TO MAKE THE EGG CLOUD:

1.    Pre heat the oven to 250 degrees centigrade.
2.   Separate an egg yolk from the white carefully; making sure that the yolk stays intact. Use a hand mixer to beat the egg white till double in size and has soft peaks. Add salt and pepper to taste.
3.   Take a bread slice. Cover the bread with this beaten foamy egg white. Use a spoon to make a slight dent on the egg white.
4.   Place this in the oven and bake for 5 minutes till the white is set.
5.   Remove from the oven and place the egg yolk carefully into the dent you made on the egg cloud. Place it back into the oven, and bake till you see the egg yolk set.
6.   Remove from the oven, sprinkle some salt and pepper and serve immediately, with the potato mash and the sautéed mushrooms.
