Halloween eggs and fingers

Grisly and ghoulish, but deliciously tomatoey, these ketchup toastie fingers are great when dipped in egg. A Halloween alternative to eggs and soldiers!

  1. Preheat the grill to medium. Boil the eggs in a saucepan for 4½ mins. Transfer to egg cups and remove the tops with a knife. Meanwhile, remove the crusts from the toastie bread and slice each into 4.
  2. Roll each slice to make a rounded log shape, then score lines in the ‘finger’ for the knuckles and around the nails. Press the back of a teaspoon handle into one end to make an indent where the ketchup ‘nail’ will go.
  3. Toast the fingers under the grill for 2-3 mins until pale golden. Squeeze a little tomato ketchup onto the toasted fingertips and serve with the boiled eggs.
