Directions
One of all time favorite brunch meal to serve in our table, Eggs Benedict. An alternative recipe to enjoy ordinary egg and bacon.
Hollandaise Sauce
Vigorously stir egg yolks and lemon juice with wire whisk in a saucepan. Add 1/4 cup of the butter and heat it over very low temperature.
Stir constantly until butter is melted
Add remaining butter and continued stir vigorously until sauce melted and sauce is thickened.
It is important to make sure butter melts slowly to let the eggs cook and the sauce thicken without curdling.
If the sauce mixture begins to separate and melted butter starts to appear around the edge and top, add 1 tablespoon boiling water and
beat vigorously until smooth and keep it warm.
Eggs Benedict
Halve English muffins horizontally, and toast in oven over 230 degrees C (450 degrees F) for 5 to 7 minutes
Spread each muffin half with 3 tablespoon butter.
