Breakfast on the Wall – Game of Thrones Style

Breakfast on the Wall – Game of Thrones Style

Serves 1-2
From book A Feast of Ice and Fire
Breakfast on the Wall--Game of Thrones style--features ham steak, hard-boiled eggs, dense black bread fried in butter, and prunes.

Ingredients

  • 1 breakfast ham steak
  • 1 tablespoon oil
  • 3 eggs
  • 2 Tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 2 Slices black bread (or rye bread)
  • a handful of prunes

Directions

Step 1
Sear the ham steak with oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat, until it starts to brown. Set the steak aside on a serving plate and keep warm.
Step 2
To cook the eggs, place them in a small saucepan and cover with a finger's breadth of water. Bring the water to a simmer (not a boil), and simmer for 6 minutes. Cool the eggs rapidly by running them under cold water for 1 minute, and set them on a serving plate.
Step 3
Melt the butter in the skillet you used to fry the ham and fry the slices of bread over medium-low heat, until golden-brown. Transfer the bread to the plate, add the prunes, and break your fast!
