Servings: 2

Preparation duration: -1 minutes

Cooking duration: -1 minutes

 

Ingredients:

1/4 cup butter

Chives

2 tablespoons cream

3 egg yolks

4 eggs

2 English muffins

Fresh ground pepper

2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon vinegar

Equipment:

food processor

slotted spoon

frying pan

double boiler

Cooking instruction summary:

  1. Bring a shallow pan of water and the vinegar to a boil.
  2. To poach the eggs, break each egg into a cup, and slide into the boiling water. By putting it in a cup first, it keeps the eggs neater in the boiling water.
  3. Cook for about 2-3 minutes, remove with a slotted spoon and drain on a towel.
  4. Toast the English muffins.
  5. For the hollandaise sauce, put the egg yolks, lemon juice and salt in a food processor and blend until smooth.
  6. Melt the butter in a pan on a very low flame, then add it to the food processor and blend until well mixed.
  7. Place the sauce in a double boiler and simmer for 2-3 minutes, stirring it constantly- so it doesnt start to clump and turn into scrambled eggs. (If you dont have a double boiler- like me- put it in a non-stick pan and make the flame super low. Pay extra attention to constantly stirring it.
  8. Stir in the cream and season with pepper.
  9. Place a poached egg on each muffin slice and top with the sauce and chopped fresh chives.
