Fried Egg Ham Open Face Sandwich With Arugula Recipes

FRIED EGG & CHEESE SANDWICH

Steps:

• Heat the butter in a medium-sized non-stick frying pan over medium high heat.
• When it's very hot, crack one egg on one side of the pan and one egg on the other side of the pan.
• Try to keep them from running into each other so that they can be flipped individually.
• CRUCIAL: Poke the yolks with the eggshell (or a fork) so that they run into the whites.
• Sprinkle salt and pepper on the eggs.
• When eggs have set (edges seem firm), flip carefully.
• I usually end up flipping them a few times to make sure the yolk is thoroughly cooked (it's okay if it's a little soft inside but not runny).
• When almost done, top each egg with a piece of cheese and cover with a lid until melty--watch closely.
• Spread mayo on each slice of toast, top with eggs, and put together.

• Cook the tomatoes on the hot griddle until light golden brown and just warmed through, about 20 seconds per side.
• Top the bread slices with a few slices of the ham, an egg, and 2 tomato halves. Toss the frisée in the dressing, season with salt and pepper, and place on top.
