INGREDIENTS
 
125 g shaved ham
 
4 eggs
 
4 english muffins, cut in half
 
1 avocado, thinly sliced, to serve
 
  [Hollandaise Sauce]
 
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar

INSTRUCTIONS
 
1.   For hollandaise sauce, combine the vinegar and egg yolks in a food processor, very slowly adding the butter bit by bit. Add lemon juice and season with salt and pepper. Transfer to a bowl, cover and leave to sit.
 
2.   To poach the eggs, fill a saucepan with water to two-thirds full. Add a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a medium-low heat. Stir the water until a whirlpool forms. Break the egg into a saucer, and then slide into the water. Cook, without stirring for 3-4 minutes, depending on desired consistency. Remove to a plate with a slotted spoon. Repeat with remaining eggs.
 
3.   Toast English muffins until golden brown. Top with ham, avocado and eggs. Drizzle with hollandaise sauce. Serve.
