Step by step
Get ahead
Make sure to assemble the recipe an hour before baking.
- Use a little oil to grease an ovenproof dish, about 20 x 30cm. Then tear the bread into pieces, the rougher the better, and scatter them over the base of the dish.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a frying pan and fry the sweetcorn over a high heat until golden brown. Scrape onto the bread, distributing evenly. Do the same with the ham.
- Beat the eggs with the milk, adding the mustard, chilli flakes, parsley, cheese and seasoning. Pour this mixture into the dish, making sure the cheese is evenly spread. Allow the mixture to sit for about 1 hour to absorb the eggy custard.
- Heat the oven to 190°C, fan 170°C, gas 5, then drizzle a little olive oil over the top and bake for 30-40 minutes until golden brown and crisp.
- Leave for 5 minutes then serve hot, with a green salad.
