  • 1 tablespoon basil chopped
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon white pepper

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 200C/400F degrees.

  • Add the mozzarella cheese.
  • Carefully break the egg and pour into the tomato.
  • Season with the salt and pepper, sprinkle with the parsley and chives.
  • Scatter the cheddar cheese on top.
