成人快手made English Muffins with Crispy Parma Ham, Poached Egg, Roasted Tomato and Hollandaise Sauce

English Muffins – makes 12
450g strong flour
225ml whole milk
80ml water
2 teaspoons dried yeast
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon castor sugar

Method

Warm the milk and water to blood temperature – dip your pinky in it and it shouldn’t burn. Whisk in the yeast and sugar and leave for 5 minutes.
Mix the flour and salt and make a well in the centre. Add the milk mixture and mix to a dough. Turn onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 10 minutes ( or use the dough hook in a mixer for 5 minutes).
Place dough in a lightly oiled bowl and cover with a teatowel or cling. Leave for an hour at ambient temperature. Knock back the dough and then roll to 2cm thick. Cut out rounds ( makes 10-12 muffins) and place on a lightly floured tray. Allow to rest for 30 minutes. Heat a heavy based frying pan or griddle pan over medium heat and add the muffins – do it in batches or in 2 pans.
Cook for about 6 minutes on each side. When they sound hollow when tapped they’re ready.
Cool on a wire rack.

Halve tomatoes and place in a small pan and drizzle with half the oil. Season with the salt and place in a 200oc oven for 10 minutes.
