Time 35m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 teaspoon vinegar
4 eggs
4 thin slices Canadian bacon
2 English muffins
3 egg yolks
1 tablespoon hot water
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 stick unsalted butter, melted and hot
Salt and pepper
Paprika
Chopped parsley

Steps:

  • In a large skillet, bring 2 inches of water and the vinegar to a boil. Crack one egg into a glass. Reduce water to a simmer and pour egg into water in one quick motion. Quickly add remaining eggs. Let eggs cook for 4-5 minutes. The white should be firm but the yellow should be runny. Remove eggs with a slotted spoon and drain on a paper towel.
  • In a non-stick skillet heat the bacon until warm. Toast the English muffins until golden.
  • For the sauce: Place yolks, water and lemon juice into blender. Blend for 1 minute. With blender running, pour butter through open hole of blender lid. Season with salt and pepper and keep warm.
  • To assemble eggs benedict: Top each muffin with bacon and a poached egg. Pour warm sauce over and garnish with paprika and chopped parsley.
  • Alternatives: Vegetarian: Substitute wilted spinach and a grilled tomato for the ham.

I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong, but my hollandaise sauce always ends up curdling.

This recipe was a disaster. The hollandaise sauce curdled, and the eggs were overcooked. I ended up throwing it all away.

The hollandaise sauce was a bit too lemony for my taste, but everything else was perfect. I'll try adjusting the lemon juice next time.
