Today it was three brown eggs, boiled hard, with fried bread and ham steak and a bowl of wrinkled plums
Seems simple.I hesitate about what is exactly a ham steak, sounds like the French Jambonneau. Wrinkled plums are probably like Pruneaux d'Agen.
So here is my breakfast for the next week :
1 Breakfast ham steak
1 tablespoon oil
3 eggs
2 tablespoon unsalted butter
2 slices rustic bread
A handful of prunes.
Sear the ham steak in a skillet with the oil until it starts browning, then set it aside on the serving plate and keep it warm.
To cook the eggs, place them in a small saucepan and cover with a finger's breadth of water. Bring the water to a simmer (not a boil) and simmer for 6 minutes. Cool the eggs rapidly by running them on the serving plate. For slightly softer eggs, cook for an initial 4 1/2 minutes.
Melt the butter in the skillet you used for the ham and fry the slice of bread. Transfer the bread to the plate, add the prunes and you're ready to break tour fast !
Probably 2 eggs and 1 slice of bread will be enough for me. But copious breakfasts are good during the week, because I don't take lunch and my dinner is at 8.30.
So pics will come soon.
