EGGS BENEDICT WITH CRISPY PARMA HAM
Supposedly named after a New York stockbroker who ordered poached eggs and hollandaise as a cure for his hangover in the 1890s, this has become the world’s most famous brunch dish. It’s great with spinach or smoked salmon, but I like it best with crisp Parma ham. Timing is the real challenge here, but the hollandaise will hold in a warm place for 30 minutes or so, and you can always make the poached eggs in advance and reheat them
