The layer of melted and crisped cheese—the frico—is what makes this creamy sandwich unique. If you like spicy aoli, add two large cloves of garlic. —Julie Solis, Congers, New York

Directions

  1. For aioli, in a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, olive oil, garlic, salt and pepper.
  2. Sprinkle Parmesan into a large nonstick skillet; heat over medium heat. Cook just until melted, about 2 minutes. Break eggs, 1 at a time, into a custard cup or saucer, then gently slide into pan over Parmesan. Immediately reduce heat to low. To prepare eggs sunny-side up, cover pan and cook until yolks thicken but are not hard, 4-5 minutes.
  3. Spread aioli over the toasted bread. Top each with giardiniera, a tomato slice and an egg. Sprinkle with parsley.
