Step 1

Lightly roast the naans on a foil-lined tray for about 5-10 minutes in a 180 °C oven till warmed through. Saute the mushrooms in a frying pan with the chopped garlic, olive oil over medium heat for 5 minutes. Season with a pinch salt, a pinch pepper and the Tabasco.

Step 2

Place the roasted naans on a cutting board and add a layer of mushrooms on top of each. Sprinkle a layer of cheese and crack an egg on top of each naan. Sprinkle with additional pinches salt and pepper.
