Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup Fat-free plain Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 2 large Egg yolks
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon Water
Instructions
In a small saucepan, whisk together the Greek yogurt, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, egg yolks, and salt until smooth.
Place the saucepan on low heat and cook the mixture while stirring constantly with a whisk. This prevents the mixture from curdling and ensures a smooth sauce.
After 2-3 minutes of stirring, add the unsalted butter to the saucepan. Continue to stir until the butter melts and fully incorporates into the sauce.
Add the water gradually if the sauce begins to thicken too much, whisking continuously to maintain a creamy consistency.
Cook and stir for another 2-3 minutes, or until the sauce is warmed through and slightly thickened. Do not let it boil, as this will scramble the eggs.
Remove the saucepan from heat and taste for seasoning. Add a pinch more salt or lemon juice, if desired.
Serve immediately over your favorite dishes like poached eggs, steamed asparagus, or grilled fish. Enjoy!
