There are many recipes with eggs that we have made in WTPand also many —even more— the recipes with potatoes that we have in our repertoire, but, although we had already made the most classic recipe for scrambled eggs, the canonical one from Casa Lucio, until now we had not released what is perhaps its most popular version: scrambled eggs with ham and potatoes.
The ham, star guest of this recipe, has no mystery: the better the dish the better the ham. So if you have any Iberian at home, perfect. From there, respect the fries and the fried egg, They also have their trick.
What we do recommend is that don’t fry the ham, but add it raw at the end so that its fat melts slightly when we put it on the eggs and potatoes. These last ones by the way, better that they are new potatoes.
For the rest, no science at all: good eggs, good potatoes, good ham and a good oil for frying that does not give much flavor and that does not have more laps than Fernando Alonso’s Formula 1. As easy as a recipe that seems incredible that we did not have it made.
We cut the potatoes to our liking and wash them with plenty of water until it comes out crystal clear, drain and dry as best as possible.
We cook in a large pot with abundant oil at 110 ºC more or lessbubbles have to come out but medium and large and very slowly.
Cook until very soft and we take care not to break them. We raise the oil to 180ºC and put the potatoes to fry when it is very hot, not many at a time so that the temperature does not drop.
will do very small bubbles and a lot. Fry until golden brown and drain on absorbent paper and season with salt.
Separately, we remove part of that oil, after having strained it, and pour it into a frying pan, heat over high heat and add the eggs, which we will fry in batches so that they do not stick.
We have the potatoes On a tray or frying pan, place the Iberian ham on top and top with 4 fried eggs with lace and the liquid yolk, so that when they are broken, the yolk makes the sauce, mixing everything well.

Little company need to be a fast starter or main that solve us a dinner, beyond the fact that we can have some olives, some anchovies in vinegar or a salad nearby. Otherwise, enjoy.
