HAM AND EGG FRIED RICE

Steps:

UITSMIJTER (DUTCH STYLE FRIED EGGS AND HAM BREAKFAST) RECIPE

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a frying pan or skillet and fry the eggs.
• Once the bottoms of the eggs are set, take the pan off the heat, place a lid on the pan and allow the eggs to steam until the top has firmed up. If you prefer your eggs more thoroughly cooked, flip them over and fry until the yolk is done to your liking.
• Lightly toast the bread (optional).
• Place the slices of bread or toast on a plate.
• Top with the fried eggs, ham and cheese.
• Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Use sharp cheddar cheese instead of Gouda.
• Add sliced avocado and substitute Monterey Jack cheese for the Gouda.
• Top the eggs and ham with cheese and put under the broiler to melt the cheese for a few minutes before completing the sandwich.
• Substitute crispy bacon for the ham.
• Use smoked rather than boiled ham.
• Serve on whole-wheat or whole-grain bread or toast.
• Spread butter or mayonnaise on the toast.

HAM AND SPINACH HASH WITH FRIED EGGS

Steps:

• Preheat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat with 2 turns of the pan of extra-virgin olive oil, about 2 tablespoons, and 2 tablespoons of butter. While the pan is getting hot and the butter is melting, cut the potatoes in half and then thinly slice them, add to the hot skillet and season with salt, pepper, thyme and the crushed red pepper flakes. Cook, stirring every now and then, for about 10 minutes or, until potatoes have browned and are tender. Add the onion and the ham and continue to cook for 3 to 4 minutes
• Preheat another skillet over medium high heat with 2 tablespoons of butter. Once the butter has melted and the bubbles have subsided, crack extra-large eggs into the pan, season with salt and pepper and fry to desired doneness.
• While the eggs are frying, finish off the hash by adding the roughly chopped spinach and basil to the potatoes. (Defrosted frozen spinach and some pesto would be added in at the same point if using substitutions.) Toss to wilt and warm the spinach. Sprinkle the hash with tomatoes and cheese and remove from the heat. Transfer the ham and spinach hash to plates. Top each portion with a single fried egg or arrange the fried eggs evenly over the platter.
