Adapted from Huey's recipe of the same name. Huey (Iain Hewitson) is an Australian chef who has written several books and whose highly popular TV cooking show appears twice daily. A tasty breakfast or brunch dish.

SERVES 2 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Heat the butter and oil in a large non-stick pan and sauté the tomatoes and mushrooms, until they begin to soften (about 2-3 minutes).
  2. 2
    At the same time, beat together the eggs, basil, cream, seasonings and parmesan with a fork; then add them to the tomatoes and mushrooms and scramble.
  3. 3
    Grill or toast the bread and panfry the prosciutto in a little oil (preferably in a non-stick pan) until crisp.
  4. 4
    To serve, place a piece of bread on each plate and top with the scrambled eggs and then the prosciutto. Garnish with a sprig of basil.

    I made this for breakfast, cut down to one serving. I used bacon instead of prosciutto, and a little more mushrooms. This isn't something I can make often due to calorie and fat restrictions, but this is nice for a special occassion. Delicious breakfast. Made this for Everyday is a Holiday tag.
