Eggs Shirred In Tomatoes Recipe (Au Miroir)

Cut circular pieces from the stem ends of the tomatoes and remove part of the pulp; season with salt and pepper, also with onion juice and parsley, if desired; break an egg into each tomato and cook in a slow oven until the egg is set, basting with melted butter. Serve on rounds of buttered toast; or, put the tomatoes into the oven on rounds of bread brushed over on all sides with melted butter; remove the tomatoes on the bread to the serving-dish. Garnish with curled celery. Serve with cream sauce apart, or poured around the toast.
