Preheat the oven to 190°C/375°F/Gas 5. Butter a shallow ovenproof dish and put the tomatoes and spring onions in it. Break the eggs into a bowl and lightly whisk, then whisk in the flour, cream and seasoning. Stir in the Cheddar cheese. Pour the mixture over the onions and tomatoes in the dish and bake in the oven for about 20 minutes until just set.

Brush the butter all over the mushrooms and place them stalk-sides down in a small roasting tin. Bake for 15 minutes, turning them over halfway through cooking. Toast the bread.
