This dish harmonizes indulgence with clean ingredients, making it an ideal choice for a nutrient-packed, satisfying meal.
INGREDIENTS
4 large eggs
2 egg yolks
1 tsp unsalted butter
1 slice sourdough bread
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 tbsp chopped fresh dill
Salt and pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Bring a medium saucepan with water to a gentle simmer and add a pinch of salt.
Crack the 4 whole eggs into individual small cups. Gently slide each egg into the simmering water and poach until the whites are set but the yolks remain runny, about 3-4 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside on a warm plate.
For the hollandaise sauce, in a heatproof bowl set over a pan of barely simmering water (double boiler method), whisk together the 2 egg yolks and 1 tablespoon of fresh lemon juice. Continue whisking while slowly stirring in 1 teaspoon of unsalted butter until the sauce thickens and becomes creamy. Remove from heat and stir in the chopped fresh dill. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Toast the sourdough slice until golden and crisp.
Place the toasted sourdough on a plate, gently arrange the poached eggs on top, and generously drizzle or spoon the warm hollandaise sauce over the eggs.
Finish with an extra light sprinkle of salt, pepper, and a few additional herbs if desired, then serve immediately.
