This is a variation of SOS (sh** on a shingle - chipped beef on toast) and also sort of a variation on eggs benedict. I don't know why I sometimes try to kill my family with incredibly rich foods, but I do. :) The bread is a modification of Giada De... More

Ingredients
  • Basil Eggs Over Foccacia
  • 1 large loaf foccacia bread
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 5 eggs
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh basil leaves
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 cup milk
  • Ham in White Sauce
  • About 6 to 8 slices of deli ham
  • 4 tablespoons butter
  • 4 tablespoons flour
  • 2 cups of milk

Directions
  1. Basil Eggs Over Foccacia
  2. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  3. Cut the top off the foccacia and hollow out the bread inside. Tear the top of the foccacia and the inside bread into 1-inch pieces and save for the egg mixture. Brush the inside of the foccacia with the olive oil to prevent the eggs from soaking the bread. Place on a baking sheet and toast for 10 minutes.
  4. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, whisk the eggs. Add the basil, cheese, salt, pepper, and milk. Whisk lightly. Stir in up to 4 cups of the bread pieces.
  5. Carefully pour the egg mixture into the toasted foccacia bottom. Return to the oven and bake until the eggs have cooked, about 35 to 40 minutes.
  6. Cut the baked foccacia into 6 to 8 slices.
  7. Ham in White Sauce
  8. Slice ham into strips.
  9. Make a roux with the butter and flour and slowly stir in the milk. When it has reached the desired consistency, add the ham strips.
  10. Plate the slice of egg foccacia and pour ham and white sauce over the top and serve immediately.
