This is essentaiily egg and bacon Andalucian style with a little Moorish twist.
Green harissa is a wonderful fresh and spicy chilli-herb paste that has the added benefit of cutting through and balancing rich foods such as these duck eggs and fatty jamon.
I use jamon iberico de bellota which is the king of Spanish cured hams- the pigs are fed on a diet of acorns that makes the resulting meat sweet, marbled and nutty (after its salting and drying), a truly unique product. Try to source it other wise a quality jamon Serrano will do the job nicely.
