Classic Big Breakfast Plate

That looks like a classic Hearty Breakfast Plate β€” crispy bacon, pan-fried ham, scrambled eggs, and sunny-side-up eggs. Here’s how to make it:


🍳 Classic Big Breakfast Plate

πŸ›’ Ingredients (Serves 2)

  • 4 large eggs (2 for frying, 2 for scrambling)

  • 6–8 slices bacon

  • 2–4 slices ham

  • 2 tablespoons butter (divided)

  • Salt, to taste

  • Black pepper, to taste

Optional:

  • Splash of milk or cream (for scrambled eggs)

  • Fresh parsley


πŸ‘©β€πŸ³ Instructions

1️⃣ Cook the Bacon

  1. Place bacon in a cold skillet.

  2. Turn heat to medium.

  3. Cook 8–12 minutes, flipping occasionally, until crispy.

  4. Remove to paper towels. Leave a little bacon grease in the pan for flavor.


2️⃣ Cook the Ham

  1. In the same skillet (or separate pan), cook ham over medium heat.

  2. Fry 2–3 minutes per side until lightly browned and slightly crisp on edges.

  3. Remove and keep warm.


3️⃣ Scrambled Eggs (Soft & Fluffy)

  1. Whisk 2 eggs with a splash of milk, salt, and pepper.

  2. Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat.

  3. Pour in eggs.

  4. Gently stir with a spatula, pulling from edges to center.

  5. Cook until just set but still slightly creamy. Remove from heat.


4️⃣ Sunny-Side-Up Eggs

  1. Melt remaining butter in skillet over medium-low heat.

  2. Crack in 2 eggs carefully.

  3. Cook 2–3 minutes until whites are set but yolks remain runny.

  4. Season with salt and pepper.

(If you prefer over-easy, flip and cook 20–30 seconds more.)


🍽️ Assemble
