    After 15 minutes, remove from the oven and using the back of a spoon create 4 wells. Crack the eggs in to each hole, sprinkle the dish with the lardons and return to the oven to bake for a further 10 minutes. If the eggs are not quite cooked, cover the dish with a little foil and cook for a further 2 - 5 minutes. Remove from the oven, sprinkle with chopped parsley and serve immediately.
