Notes

  • Runny yolks are essential. They run into the bread and become the sauce.
  • Slide the eggs on hot so they warm the cheese beneath.
  • The name means bouncer or chucker-out, supposedly because it was the last dish served before closing time.
  • The yolks stay runny. For anyone pregnant, very young, elderly or with weakened immunity, use pasteurised eggs, or fry them until the yolks are set.
