friederike from Berlin,

I made this with a few small changes - I used an onion instead of leeks or spring onions, and I omitted the smoked salmon and added a few drops of truffle oil. The onion was definitely too strong in taste, leek or spring onion will probably work better. The truffle oil was very nice, but be careful not to use too much, should be just a few drops. And be careful with salt as well.

My main problem was that I accidentally used too much cream, so after 12 minutes, I still had a lot of liquid cream covering the egg; it was only because I poked around I knew that the egg had set. Unfortunately, the egg yolk had been covered by the cream as well, and wasn't quite as runny as I had hoped.
