INTRODUCTION

ABOUT THE RECIPE

The „Stramme Max“ is originally a German dish traditionally served as a slice of sourdough bread with ham and fried eggs. There are countless variations and modifications, as it is super simple and makes a delicious breakfast. Here you will find my version as a slightly crisper one with fresh tomatoes and my pickle & red onion salsa as well as a freshly baked ciabatta bun. Let’s enjoy this bun of happiness.

How to serve:
To serve Strammer Max, start by toasting a slice of your favorite bread. Fry eggs to your desired doneness. Place the ham and eggs on the toasted bread. Add a touch of freshness with sliced tomatoes and a zesty pickle and red onion salsa. Serve it open-faced for a picturesque presentation.

How to store:
While Strammer Max is best enjoyed fresh, you can prepare components in advance. Store ham and eggs separately in airtight containers in the refrigerator. Assemble just before serving to maintain the ideal texture. If you have leftover Strammer Max, refrigerate it, but be aware that the bread may lose its crispiness upon reheating.
