Eggs Benny Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Hollandaise Sauce

   Melt the butter in a saucepan. In a bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, lemon juice, and salt. Slowly drizzle in the melted butter while whisking continuously until the sauce is thickened. Add a pinch of cayenne pepper and set aside.

2. 2

   Cook the Bacon

   In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until crispy. Remove and place on a paper towel to drain excess fat.

3. 3

   Poach the Eggs

   Bring a pot of water to a gentle simmer and add a splash of vinegar. Crack each egg into a small bowl, then gently slide into the water. Cook for 3-4 minutes until whites are set but yolks remain runny. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain.

4. 4

   Toast the Brioche

   In the same skillet used for bacon, toast the brioche slices until golden brown on both sides.

5. 5

   Assemble the Dish

   On each toasted brioche slice, layer the crispy bacon, followed by the poached eggs. Drizzle generously with hollandaise sauce and garnish with fresh basil leaves. Serve with tater tots on the side.
