Method

Preheat the oven to gas ½, 130°C, fan 110°C. Heat 1 tbsp oil in a frying pan over a high heat. Flash-fry the broccoli stalk for 1 min, then transfer to a bowl. Add the flour, baking powder, crème fraîche, milk and basil and mix well.
Heat ½ tbsp oil in the frying pan over a medium heat. Spoon in a quarter of the fritter mixture and cook for 2-3 mins until bubbles start appearing, then flip and cook for another 1-2 mins until golden brown. Place on a baking tray in the oven to keep warm while you make the rest of the fritters, using ½ tbsp oil each time.
For the slaw, mix the broccoli florets with the Parmesan, cashews, garlic and chilli. Season and slowly mix in 6 tbsp oil.
Bring a large saucepan of water to the boil with the vinegar and a little salt. Turn down to a simmer, then carefully crack in 2 eggs and poach for 3 mins. Carefully remove from the water with a slotted spoon and drain on kitchen paper while you poach the other 2.
Divide the fritters between 4 warm plates. Top with a slice of ham, a poached egg and 2 tbsp slaw. Store any leftover slaw in the fridge and stir through pasta, or add to salads and sandwiches.
