Poached Eggs in Red Wine

Fry 4 rounds of bread.

Poach 4 eggs in 1/2 bottle of red wine (can use 3/4 cup port, claret or burgundy with 1 & 1/4 cup of water).

Place eggs in oven to keep warm. Fry one medium sized onion until golden, add 1 or 2 dessertspoons of flour, stir, then add wine sauce and cook until thickened. Serve eggs on round of bread and cover with wine sauce.
