published on 15 March, 2018 at 15:46
INGREDIENTS
4 large potatoes
2 tbsp olive oil
salt and pepper to taste
vegetable oil for frying
2 tbsp butter
4 tbsp chopped ham steak
2 tbsp flour
1 cup milk
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
4 egg yolks
1 tablespoon finely chopped parsley for garnish
INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat oven to 250 degrees.
Cut off one-fourth from both ends of each potato (save them for French fries).
Brush each potato with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
Place potatoes on baking sheet lines with parchment paper and bake for 50 minutes to 1 hour.
Make the French fries by cutting the trimmed ends of the potatoes into short, fat sticks and fry them in a medium saucepan with the vegetable oil for about 20 to 25 minutes.
Make the sauce by heating a medium saucepan over medium heat and adding the butter until melted. Add the ham and season with salt and pepper. Now add the flour and stir to combine. Cook for couple of minutes. Gradually add the milk while whisking. Cook until slightly thickened. Add the nutmeg and cheese and stir to combine.
Remove the roasted potatoes from the oven and carefully scoop the flesh of each one. Sprinkle with salt and pepper every potato. It is now time to fill each one with the ham and cheese sauce and top with an egg yolk and one more spoonful of the ham and cheese sauce. Season with salt and pepper and a drizzle of olive oil.
Bake for 2 to 3 minutes for a runny yolk. Remove from the oven and garnish with fresh parsley and serve with French fries.
