INGREDIENTS

• 12 soft bread rolls – store-bought
 (I use small soft white buns or sliders from the local supermarket).
  3/4 cup onion jam or relish
  300 g shaved ham
  1 cup cheese – tasty or whatever

TOPPING

• 3 medium Eggs
  50 g melted butter
  1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  1/2 tsp salt
  1 tsp dry English mustard powder
  1 cup grated cheese

DIRECTIONS

• Preheat the oven to 180°C. Line a baking dish that will fit the buns snugly, with baking paper.
• Split each bun in half horizontally, or do this as a whole unit if they’re all stuck together.
• Dollop each bottom half with onion jam then top with plenty of ham and cheese. Place the tops on and cut a cross in each top so the topping will soak in. Fit the buns into the lined dish so that they’re touching.
• In a bowl whisk together eggs, melted butter, Worcestershire sauce, salt and mustard and stir in the cheese. Spoon this mixture over the buns.
• Bake for about 8-10 minutes until the topping is golden and bubbling.
• Serve immediately, with plenty of napkins!

• 5 Chicken breasts or thigh pieces
• 4 sun dried tomatoes, chopped
• 4-5 cloves of garlic
• 1 tsp dried tarragon
• 200 g crème fraiche or sour cream
• ¼ c chicken stock
• 2 tbsp whole grain mustard
• 200 g cherry tomatoes
• 5 rashers of bacon
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Fresh chopped herbs such as chives or parsley to garnish

Preheat the oven to 190C.
Place the chicken and garlic in a deep oven proof dish. Mix together in a bowl the crème fraiche, tarragon, mustard and stock and then pour over the chicken. Scatter over the chopped tomatoes and bacon. Bake for 30-40 minutes. Bake some potatoes or kumara in the oven while the chicken is cooking and serve with a green salad.
