Ingredients
Scale
- 4 large eggs, separated
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, finely chopped
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 190 C and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Lightly brush the parchment with olive oil.
- Carefully separate the egg whites and yolks, placing the whites in a clean, dry mixing bowl and keeping the yolks intact in a separate bowl.
- Add salt and black pepper to the egg whites.
- Using a hand mixer or whisk, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form.
- Spoon the whipped egg whites onto the prepared baking sheet, forming four fluffy mounds.
- Create a small well in the center of each mound using the back of a spoon.
- Bake the egg whites for 5 to 6 minutes until lightly golden and set.
- Remove from the oven and gently place one egg yolk into each well. Sprinkle evenly with paprika.
- Return to the oven and bake for an additional 3 to 4 minutes until the yolks are just set but still soft.
- Remove from the oven, garnish with freshly chopped parsley, and serve immediately.
Notes
- Ensure no yolk gets into the egg whites before whipping for maximum volume.
- Whip the whites to stiff peaks so they hold their shape while baking.
- Watch the yolks closely during the final bake to prevent overcooking.
- Serve immediately for the best airy texture.
