Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 14

3 Tbsp chopped green pepper
2 Tbsp chopped onion
2 Tbsp butter
2 Tbsp all purpose flour
1 Tbsp horseradish mustard
1/4 tsp salt
1/8 tsp dried oregano, crushed
1/8 tsp dried thyme, crushed
1/8 tsp pepper
1 c milk
6 eggs
6 oz swiss cheese, sliced
3 english muffins, split and toasted
paprika

Steps:

  • 1. In a medium saucepan, cook green pepper and onion in butter till tender. Stir in flour, mustard, salt, oregano, thyme, and pepper; add milk all at once. Cook and stir till mixture is thickened and bubbly. Cook and stir 1 minute more. Cover and keep warm.
  • 2. In a lightly greased 10-inch skillet heat 1-1/2 inches water to boiling; reduce heat so water simmers. Break ONE egg into a small sauce dish. Carefully slide egg into simmering water, holding lip of dish as close to the water as possible. Repeat with remaining 5 eggs, keeping them separate in the skillet. Simmer, uncovered, over low heat for 3 to 5 minutes or to desired doneness (do not let water boil).
  • 3. Meanwhile, divide slices of Swiss cheese among toasted English muffin halves. Place on rack of an unheated broiler pan. Broil 3 to 4 inches from heat till cheese melts. When eggs are done, lift out of skillet with a slotted spoon, place each egg on a muffin half. Spoon some sauce over each. Sprinkle lightly with paprika and serve.

Eggs à la Suisse were a hit at my dinner party! The cheese sauce was rich and creamy, and the poached eggs were cooked to perfection. Served it with a side of asparagus, and it was a meal that everyone raved about. Definitely a keeper!
