Hot Cross Shokupan... do you prefer sweet or savoury? It's almost Easter so it's time to break out the @Australian Eggs  First, I'm blending a hot cross bun recipe with a Japanese milk bun (shokupan). Then, we're turning it into two recipes. A savoury cheese, ham and egg toastie and a sweet s'mores inspired toastie with a chocolate egg. There’s room for both kinds of eggs this Easter! #AustralianEggs #Easter #Recipe #HotCrossBuns Full Shokupan recipe is on my website and link in bio.  Savoury version - 2 slices hot cross bun Shokupan - 3 slices leg ham - 3 slices swiss cheese - 1 tbs kewpie mayonnaise - ⅓ cup grated mozzarella cheese - 1 egg - Sea salt and cracked pepper, to season 1. Top one slice of Shokupan with the ham slices, then cheese slices. Make an indent in the centre of the other slice of Shokupan, large enough to cradle the egg. Spread the indented slice with mayonnaise, then place on top of the cheese and ham. 2. Transfer the sandwich to an oven tray lined with baking paper. Carefully crack the egg into the indent on top, then place the mozzarella around the edges of the egg. Season with salt and pepper. 3. Bake in a preheated oven at 160°C fan forced (320°F) for 15-20 minutes, until the cheese is golden and the egg white is just set. Serve hot and enjoy! S’mores version - 20g butter - 2 slices hot cross bun Shokupan - 3 giant marshmallows - 4 small solid chocolate easter eggs - 1 medium size cream filled egg 1. Melt the butter in a large frying pan over medium heat. Cook the Shokupan slices for 1 minute on each side until golden. Transfer to an oven tray lined with baking paper. 2. Slice the marshmallows into 1cm thick slices. Cover 1 slice of the bread with the marshmallow and then top with the solid eggs. Cover the other slice, leaving a space in the middle, then place the cream filled egg in the centre. 3. Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C fan forced (355°F) for 5 minutes, until the marshmallow starts to brown. Carefully transfer the cream filled egg slice on top of the other slice and serve!
