3.Slice the Prosciutto into thin ribbons.
4.Break the eggs into a bowl and beat adding salt and pepper to taste.
5.Set a broiler proof frying pan on medium, add the oil and then to onion and garlic. Fry for 3 minutes. Add the potatoes, pepper and prosciutto and fry for an additional 5 minutes.
6.Turn the broiler on - to medium if your broiler allows it.
7.Reduce heat to medium low and pour the eggs over the Potato/pepper mixture stirring slightly to let the egg reach the pan base. Let cook 3 minutes.
8.Remove the pan from the stove and place under the broiler - approx 4 inches (10 cm) for 2 to 3 minutes.
