Time 20m

Yield Makes 4 halves

Number Of Ingredients 5

3 tbsp white wine vinegar
4 large free-range eggs
2 toasting muffins
1 batch hot hollandaise sauce (see 'Goes well with' below)
4 slices parma ham

Steps:

  • Bring a deep saucepan of water to the boil (at least 2 litres) and add 3 tbsp white wine vinegar. Break the eggs into four separate coffee cups or ramekins. Split the muffins, toast them and warm some plates.
  • Swirl the vinegared water briskly to form a vortex and slide in an egg. It will curl round and set to a neat round shape. Cook for 2-3 mins, then remove with a slotted spoon.
  • Repeat with the other eggs, one at a time, re-swirling the water as you slide in the eggs. Spread some sauce on each muffin, scrunch a slice of ham on top, then top with an egg. Spoon over the remaining hollandaise and serve at once.
