Instructions

Prep Time
1

a) Finely chop the chives (use scissors if easier).

b) Zest and cut the lemon into wedges.

c) Roughly chop half the smoked salmon into small pieces.

Mix the Filling
2

a) Combine in a medium bowl the hard Italian style cheese, creme fraiche, chopped salmon, three quarters of the chives and a pinch of lemon zest (add more if you prefer). 

b) Season with pepper and mix well.

Prep the Ciabatta
3

a) Make the bread bowls by cutting a 0.5-1cm slice off the top of each ciabatta roll.

b) Scoop out the soft inner bread in the centre, leaving a 0.5-1cm thick ciabatta shell. TIP: Rather than discarding the lids and inner part of your ciabatta rolls, save the bread for another recipe for making breadcrumbs or croutons!

Lay in the Salmon
4

a) Place the remaining salmon into your ciabatta bowls, allowing the salmon to poke out of the top of the hole. Lay the sides of the salmon slightly down the sides of the ciabatta rolls.

b) Place the ciabatta rolls onto a lined baking tray.

Into the Oven
5

a) Divide the creme fraiche mixture between your ciabatta bowls, then crack an egg (see pantry for amount) into each. TIP: Discard any egg whites that don't fit in the ciabatta. 

b) Place the salmon ciabatta bowls onto the middle shelf of your oven and bake until the bread is crisp and the eggs are set, 15-20 mins. IMPORTANT: Ensure egg whites are fully cooked.

Finish and Serve
6

a) Once baked, divide your salmon ciabatta bowls between your serving plates.

b) Sprinkle over the remaining chives and serve with the lemon wedges for squeezing over to finish.

Enjoy!
