- Boil the egg for 9 mins, then drain and let cool under running water. Shell and coarsely grate into a bowl.

- Top with the ham and watercress. Sandwich with the top half. Wrap in cling film, if you like.
- Cook's tip: For a refreshing snack, you could pack cubed cantaloupe melon mixed with some peeled, seeded and chopped cucumber and a little shredded basil.
