The Perfectly Balanced Breakfast

Method

    1. Fill a small frying pan with water to a depth of 5cm and heat until it is just simmering. One at a time, crack the eggs and drop them into the hot water, then reduce the heat so the water is gently bubbling. Poach for 3-4mins or until the eggs are cooked to your liking

    2. Meanwhile, toast the muffin and place both halves on a plate, top with the sliced tomato and ham

    3. Using a slotted spoon, carefully lift the eggs from the water and place them on top of the ham. Top with cracked pepper and serve immediately with a glass of orange juice
