Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 whole English muffins
- 100 grams Smoked salmon
- 4 large Eggs
- 2 tablespoons White wine vinegar
- 3 large Egg yolks
- 125 grams Unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Chopped chives
Instructions
Toast the English muffins until golden brown and crispy. Set aside.
Prepare the hollandaise sauce by placing a heatproof bowl over a saucepan of simmering water. Ensure the bottom of the bowl doesn't touch the water.
Add the egg yolks to the bowl and whisk continuously along with 1 tablespoon of white wine vinegar until the mixture is pale and thickened.
Gradually add melted butter in a slow stream while whisking until the sauce is thick and creamy.
Add lemon juice, salt, and black pepper to the hollandaise sauce. Keep warm over very low heat, stirring occasionally.
To poach the eggs, bring a medium saucepan of water to a gentle simmer and add the remaining tablespoon of white wine vinegar.
Crack an egg into a small cup, then gently slide it into the simmering water. Repeat with the remaining eggs.
Poach each egg for about 3-4 minutes or until the whites are set, and the yolks remain soft.
Using a slotted spoon, carefully remove the poached eggs and place them on paper towels to drain.
To assemble the Eggs Royale, place each toasted English muffin half on a serving plate.
Layer slices of smoked salmon on each muffin half.
Top each with a poached egg and a generous spoonful of hollandaise sauce.
Garnish with chopped chives and serve immediately.
