Parma Ham and Poached Egg

Let’s take ham and eggs to a new level, shall we?

Even a dollop of pesto over perfectly poached eggs completely elevates the dish. I try to keep a jar in the fridge at all times for just such occasions. It’s so simple yet so delicious!

If you’re lucky enough to be able to grow your own basil, layering a few leaves with your Parma and poached egg, a drizzle of good quality olive oil and a few sliced tomatoes gives a fresh Caprese feel that will transport your brunch magically.
