Ingredients

10 Eggs
1 1/2 cup Spinach
10-12 Fresh Chives
10-12 Fresh Basil leaves
1 tsp salt & pepper
2 tbsp butter
8 slices Smoked ham

Preparation

1.  Blanch the spinach and squeeze out the excess water from the spinach.

2.  Using a blender or food processor, puree the spinach with the eggs, fresh herbs, salt & pepper until smooth.

3.  Melt 1 tbsp of the butter into the hot pan and fry the slices of ham until they’re golden in colour.

4.  Over medium heat, add the remaining butter then add the egg mixture once the butter has melted. Gently stir the eggs constantly using a heatproof rubber scraper or a wooden spoon. Once the eggs have set and cooked to a moist, light & fluffy texture, place onto the cooked ham.

***For a decorative presentation, wrap the ham around a metal pastry cutter or metal measuring cup. Tie the ham in place using butchers twine. Place into oven for an additional minute. Then fill with the scrambled green eggs.
