English Muffin

Eggs

Tomato & Avocado

Hollandaise Sauce

Method

Preparation of Breakfast Potatoes

  1. 1

    Cook the Potatoes

    Wash and dice the potatoes into small cubes. In a mixing bowl, toss the diced potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.

  2. 2

    Bake the Potatoes

    Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Spread the seasoned potatoes on a baking sheet in a single layer and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until crispy and golden, stirring halfway through.

Preparation of Hollandaise Sauce

  1. 3

    Make the Hollandaise

    In a heatproof bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and lemon juice until frothy. Place the bowl over a pot of simmering water (double boiler setup), whisking continuously.

  2. 4

    Add Butter

    Slowly drizzle in the melted butter while whisking constantly until the sauce thickens. Season with a pinch of salt and remove from heat.

Cooking the Eggs

  1. 5

    Baste the Eggs

    Fill a pot with water and bring it to a gentle simmer. Add salt and vinegar. Crack the eggs into individual small bowls and gently slide them into the water. Cook for about 3-4 minutes for runny yolks. Remove with a slotted spoon.

Assembling the Benedict

  1. 6

    Prepare the Muffins

    Toast the English muffins until golden brown. Place one half on each plate.

  2. 7

    Layer the Ingredients

    Slice the tomatoes and avocado. Arrange the slices on the toasted English muffin halves.

  3. 8

    Add the Eggs

    Top each muffin half with a basted egg. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  4. 9

    Drizzle Hollandaise

    Generously drizzle the hollandaise sauce over the eggs and serve alongside the crispy breakfast potatoes.
