Method
- Heat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan/gas 6. Put the sweet potato in a roasting tin, toss with 1 tbsp olive oil, season with salt and pepper and roast for 45 minutes.
- In a large bowl, mix together the remaining olive oil with the chestnuts, ciabatta, garlic and herbs and season with salt and a grinding of pepper. Once the sweet potato is tender and caramelised, add the ciabatta and chestnut mixture and toss together well. Return to the oven for another 10-15 minutes until the ciabatta is beginning to crisp.
- Mix together the eggs, wine and stock, then pour into the tin and return to the oven for a final 10-15 minutes. Remove, set aside for 5 minutes to rest, then sprinkle with extra oregano to serve.
