I followed the recipe exactly and the sauce curdled. I'm not sure what went wrong.

This recipe was a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more herbs and spices next time.

The eggs were a bit overcooked for my taste, but the sauce was delicious. I'll try again with less cooking time next time.

I'm not a big fan of eggs, but this dish was surprisingly good. The watercress and parsley sauce was really flavorful and helped to balance out the richness of the eggs.

This dish was easy to make and very tasty. I used fresh eggs from my backyard chickens and the flavor was amazing. The sauce was creamy and flavorful, and the watercress and parsley added a nice touch.
