- 400grams ready-made shortcrust pastry

- 8 eggs, 1 egg lightly beaten, for egg wash
- 1/3 cup double cream
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 pinch freshly ground black pepper
Method
Step 1 of 3
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Halve the pastry, then roll out both pieces on a floured work surface to fit the pie tin. Use one of the pieces to line the tin, making sure that the pastry fits neatly into the corners.
Step 2 of 3
Scatter the ham evenly over the bottom of the pastry shell. Carefully break the 6 eggs into the shell, positioning them evenly and making sure that the yolks remain whole. Pour over the cream, and season well with salt and black pepper.
Step 3 of 3
Wet the edges of the pastry shell with a little water, then cover with the other piece of pastry to make a lid. Trim away the excess, and press the edges of the pastry together with your finger and thumb to seal. Brush with a little of the egg wash, and bake in the oven for 25-35 minutes until golden brown. Leave to cool for at least 10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm or cold with a fresh tomato salad.
