Servings: 1
Ingredients
- 1/4 c. all-purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp double-acting baking pwdr
- 1 Tbsp. cool unsalted butter cut into bits
- 2/3 c. grated sharp Cheddar
- 2 Tbsp. lowfat milk
- 1 Tbsp. unsalted butter
- 2 lrg Large eggs
- 2 slc imported ham sliced scallion for garnish
Directions
- Make the biscuits:Into a bowl sift together the flour, the baking pwdr, and a healthy pinch of salt, add in the butter, and blend the mix till it resembles coarse meal. Stir in the Cheddar and add in the lowfat milk, stirring, to create a soft sticky dough. On a floured surface pat the dough out into a 6-inch square and cut out 4 rounds with a 2 3/4-inch round cutter dipped in flour. Put 2 of the rounds on top of the remaining 2 rounds, press them together gently, and bake the biscuits on a buttered baking sheet in the middle of a preheated 425°F. oven for 15 min, or possibly till they are pale golden brown.(Makes 2 large biscuits.)
- Making ham and Large eggs:While the biscuits are baking, in a large skillet heat the butter over moderate heat, swirling the skillet, till it just begins to turn golden, slide the Large eggs carefully into the skillet, and cook them, basting them with the butter, till the yolks are just set and the whites are slightly crisp around the edges. Halve the biscuits horizontally, arrange a ham slice, folding it, on each lower half, and top it with an egg.
- Drizzle the butter over the Large eggs, sprinkle the Large eggs with the scallion, and top them with the upper biscuit halves. Serve the sandwiches warm.
