Garlic Eggs from the Provençe

Recipe #211178 | 15 min | 10 min prep | add private note

Best made the day before. Not for the health conscious. A liking for garlic helps. Don't use a blender to make the paste; using a mortar and pestle is indispensable to get the right consistency, which should still have small, crushed chunks in it. Great with toast.

I halved this recipe with no problem. The recipe did not state when to add the tarragon so I added it to the sauce just before adding the olive oil and the vinegar. This was quite tasty but definitely needs to sit overnight to let the flavours meld. While this is not something I would make often due to the overwhelming fat content - I would definitely make them again. I served on toast as suggested for breakfast. Thanks for posting! Made for PAC Spring 2008.
