Preheat your oven to 240 degrees Celsius (fan forced) for at least 10 minutes. This is important to ensure your pastry and eggs cook at the same speed.
Lay one sheet of Fillo Pastry horizontally and brush it liberally with melted salted butter. Lay another sheet of pastry vertically across it to create a cross, and brush with more butter.
Pinch in the opposite corners of your pastry to form a nest. Transfer the nest to a baking sheet. Using your fingers, press down the center of the pastry to create a cavity.
Crack your egg into the cavity.
Bake in the oven for 8-10 minutes, depending on how soft you like your egg.
Allow to sit for 1-2 minutes. Sprinkle with salt flakes and cracked pepper, and enjoy!
Cook it hands-free.
