A classic egg breakfast with a basil flavour boost.

Ingredients

Trimmed leg ham

60 g, fat trimmed

Egg(s)

2 medium

Soy and linseed bread

2 slice(s)

Basil pesto

1 tbs

Oil spray

1 x 3 second spray(s)

Instructions

  1. Bring a large saucepan of water to the boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat until water is barely simmering. Carefully break 1 egg into a cup, then slide egg into water. Repeat with remaining egg. Poach eggs gently for 1–2 minutes or until egg whites are set and yolks are still soft.
  2. Meanwhile, lightly spray a medium non-stick frying pan with oil and heat over medium heat. Add ham and cook for 1–2 minutes each side or until crisp.
  3. Toast bread and place on serving plates. Top with ham, eggs and pesto. Serve.

Notes

SERVING SUGGESTION: Grilled roma tomatoes.TIP: You can make fried or scrambled eggs using oil spray instead of poached eggs.
