How to Make

  • Step 1: Fill deep frying pan with water.

  • Step 2: Bring to boil.

  • Step 3: Add salt to water for taste.

  • Step 4: Add vinegar to water to help egg keep its shape.

  • Step 5: Crack open the egg and put in a ramekin - be sure not to break the egg yoke.

  • Step 6: With a whisk, in center of pan make a circle rapidly like you are creating a vortex or a little tornado. This keeps the egg in the middle and well contained and gives a very good look to the poached egg.

  • Step 7: Pour egg out of ramkin into the middle of pan in the 'tornado' that you created.

  • Step 8: Put the english muffin in toaster.

  • Step 9: Heat frying pan and add the butter, then the ham and summer sausage slices.

  • Step 10: When muffin toasted, butter and put on a plate.

  • Step 11: Add the cheese slice.

  • Step 12: Put ham then summer sausage/salami slices on top of the cheese.

  • Step 13: Take out poached egg and lay on top of meat slices.

  • Step 14: Add pepper.

  • Step 15: Garnish with a spinach leaf on top.

  • Step 16: Add blueberries, raspberries, bananas or whatever fruit you want on side.(I added a raspberry desert sauce I made on the side too).
