Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Preheat and Prepare
Pre-heat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit (220degC). Set a cast iron pot or pan that is oven-safe into the oven to warm.
2. Make the Batter A mixing bowl mix 4 large eggs until they become frothy.
Add the flour, milk, and salt. Mix until smooth, making sure there are no lumps left. Let the batter sit for 5-10 minutes.
3. Bake the Dutch Baby
Take your hot pan from oven. Then include 2 tablespoons butter that has been melted and swirl to make sure the pan is coated.
Put the pancake batter in the pan, then put it back in the oven. Bake for about 15 hours or so until it is puffy as well as golden brown. Edges should appear crispy and the middle should be slightly soft.
4. Prepare the Fried Eggs
When the Dutch baby bakes in the oven, heat a non-stick pan at medium-low high.
Incorporate a tiny amount of oil or butter and then place the eggs in the pan. Bake until whites are cooked but the yolks are still running (or according to the desired degree of level of cookedness). Add black pepper and salt.
5. Assemble and Serve
Take your Dutch child from its oven, and allow it to rest for at least a minute.
Serve with pieces of salmon smoked, and carefully arrange the eggs on the top.
Sprinkle on fresh dill or capsicums and optionally chives for an explosion of flavor. Include thin slices of red onion to add added flavor.
Drink with lemon wedges to give an additional citrus flavor which enhances the overall taste.
