1
Prepare the Home Fries
Dice the potatoes and boil them in salted water until tender. Drain and set aside.
2
Pan-Sear the Crab Cakes
In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the crab cakes and pan-sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove from the skillet and keep warm.
3
Griddle the Tomatoes
In the same skillet, add more olive oil if necessary and griddle the whole tomatoes until slightly charred and warmed through. Remove and set aside.
4
Poach the Eggs
Bring a pot of water to a gentle simmer. Crack each egg into a small bowl and gently slide them into the water. Poach for about 3-4 minutes for soft yolks. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
5
Toast the English Muffins
Split the English muffins and toast them until golden brown.
6
Assemble the Dish
On each toasted muffin half, layer the griddled tomato, followed by a crab cake, and finally a poached egg. Drizzle generously with hollandaise sauce and serve with home fries on the side.
