Eggs Benedict
Eggs Benedict is a popular breakfast dish that typically consists of a toasted English muffin, topped with Canadian bacon or ham, a poached egg, and hollandaise sauce.
Ingredients
- 4 English muffins split and toasted
- 8 slices Canadian bacon or ham
- 4 eggs
- 1 tablespoon white vinegar
- Salt and pepper to taste
For hollandaise sauce:
- 3 egg yolks
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice freshly squeezed
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter melted
- Salt and cayenne pepper to taste
Instructions
- To make the hollandaise sauce, whisk the egg yolks and lemon juice together in a bowl over a saucepan of simmering water until thickened.
- Slowly pour in the melted butter while whisking continuously until the sauce thickens. Season with salt and cayenne pepper to taste.
- Fry the Canadian bacon or ham slices in a pan over medium heat until lightly browned.
- To poach the eggs, bring a large pan of water to a boil and add the white vinegar. Reduce the heat to a gentle simmer and crack each egg into the water. Poach for about 2-3 minutes until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny.
- To assemble, place two slices of Canadian bacon or ham on each toasted muffin half. Top each with a poached egg and spoon hollandaise sauce over the top.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste and serve immediately.
