Notes

Keep an eye on the dish the last ten minutes of the cooking. The eggs can burn pretty easily.

You may need to adjust your temperture a bit as well, if your oven tends to be overly hot you might end up with a burnt outer edge and a mushy not set center.

The original recipe will serve 6 as an appetizer or 4 as a main course.
