I learned how to make this little egg treat years ago when I worked at an artisanal bakery in Portland. It has a lot of different names: One Eye, Egg in the basket, Toastie...this recipe is really quite simple to make. I added a little finely chopped asparagus tip and sliced pecorino cheese to mine.
