Scrambled Eggs and Ham - TheRecipe.Website
Ham and scrambled eggs form a timeless breakfast duo, celebrated for their simplicity and comforting flavours. Whether served on their own, nestled between slices of toast, or rolled into a breakfast burrito, this classic combination never fails to satisfy morning hunger pangs.
To prepare this delectable dish, begin by whisking together eggs in a bowl, adding a splash of milk, a pinch of salt, and a grind of black pepper for seasoning. Heat a skillet over medium heat and melt a pat of butter until it sizzles gently. Pour the beaten eggs into the skillet, allowing them to cook slowly, stirring occasionally until they begin to set.
Meanwhile, finely chop or dice your favourite ham—whether it’s smoked, honey-glazed, or country-style—adding it to the skillet when the eggs are almost cooked through. The ham infuses the eggs with its savoury flavour, creating a harmonious blend of tastes and textures.
Continue to gently scramble the eggs and ham together until the eggs reach your desired level of doneness. Ideally you want them to remain fluffy and moist. For an extra touch of indulgence, sprinkle in some grated cheese, such as cheddar or Swiss gruyere. Simply let it melt into the eggs for added richness.
Once the eggs are cooked to perfection, transfer them to a plate and garnish with freshly chopped herbs. I use chives or parsley for a burst of freshness. Serve alongside toast, English muffins, or a stack of pancakes for a hearty and satisfying breakfast. It’s guaranteed to fuel your day.
Whether enjoyed leisurely on a lazy weekend morning or grabbed on the go during a busy weekday, ham and scrambled eggs offer a comforting and delicious start to any day, reminding us of the simple pleasures found in a well-made breakfast.
Scrambled Eggs and Ham is a useful tip for a fast breakfast. Many people only have scrambled eggs for breakfast and/or brunch but they are so flexible. You can have them for lunch, snack, dinner, side dish. This is a quick dish that is filling and also helps to use up left over meats.  Eggs have proven to aid digestion and provide an inexpensive source of high quality protein. This dish is often a favourite  at Christmas when there is lots of spare meat available. Obviously any left over meats is acceptable so long as it is tasty.
