Method

step 1

Preheat the grill and toast the muffins on the cut sides only. Poach the egg in gently simmering water for 3 to 4 minutes until the yolk is set but still runny in the middle.

step 2

Spread the toasted muffin sides with the low-fat spread, and layer the spinach leaves, ham and cheese on 1 half. Place the poached egg on top, season with black pepper, and top with the other half of the muffin.

information

If you prefer, you can scramble the egg with 4 tablespoons of semi-skimmed milk – pour the mixture into a heated pan, cook and stir until the eggs are just set.
