An uitsmijter looks to me like a heavy breakfast but to most Dutch people, it’s mostly labelled as a snack (a really heavy one). Some of my non-Dutch friends here didn’t even know what it was and they’ve been living here longer than I have!

Here’s how to do it:

• Get one large plate. The largest you have.
• Place three slices of bread, nicely fitting like a puzzle on the large plate. Did I mention that you need a large plate?
• Slide some butter on it. On the bread, not the… large plate.
• Place slices of roast beef or ham on the bread, about4 or 5 slices.
• Top it off with 3 fried eggs!
• On the side of the large plate, place some salad and fries.
• Eat everything, except for the large plate.

Try an uitsmijter when you visit Amsterdam!
