- 6 medium free-range eggs
- 100ml + 2 tbsp soured cream

- 1 finely chopped onion
- 1 crushed garlic clove
- 30g parmesan
- 100g sliced smoked salmon

Method
- Heat the grill to high. Separate the eggs into 2 mixing bowls. Whisk 100ml of the soured cream and the chopped fresh dill into the yolks. Heat a large non-stick frying pan with a glug of olive oil. Fry the onion for 5 minutes. Add crushed garlic and fry for 2 minutes.
- Using an electric hand mixer, whisk the egg whites until they form stiff peaks when the beaters are removed. Gently fold into the egg yolks using a large metal spoon. Pour the mixture into the frying pan and leave to cook for 5-6 minutes.
